"Save the Best for the Last" – Wizkid Throws Shade at Burna Boy, Asake as Afro Nation Performance Sparks Debate
Wizkid has responded to online critics who have claimed that fellow Nigerian superstars Burna Boy and Asake are better performing artists than the Ojuelegba crooner. During his performance at Afro Nation, Wizkid appeared to address the comparisons, telling the crowd, "Big Wiz is here.
That's why you save the best for the last, baby." His remark has since gone viral on social media, with fans interpreting it as a direct response to the ongoing debate over the performance order involving the two Afrobeats stars and a clear assertion of his dominance in the industry.
The comment has sparked fresh debate among fans of the three artists, with some praising Wizkid for his confidence and others accusing him of being arrogant. In another viral tweet by Wizkid's associate, Rotimi, the businessman declared no one can equal Big Wiz, further fueling the conversation. The ongoing rivalry between Wizkid and Burna Boy has been well-documented, with both artists often taking subtle digs at each other in interviews and on social media, and this latest exchange is just another chapter in their long-running feud.
This latest exchange comes amid a broader conversation about the hierarchy in Afrobeats and which artist truly deserves the title of the genre's biggest star. Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Asake have all enjoyed massive success in recent years, with each commanding a loyal fanbase that fiercely defends their favourite artist.
The rivalry shows no signs of cooling down anytime soon, with fans on both sides using every opportunity to debate who is the true king of Afrobeats.
As the debate continues to rage on social media, Wizkid has made his position clear, he believes he is the best, and he is not afraid to say it.
Whether his comments will spark a response from Burna Boy or Asake remains to be seen, but for now, the Ojuelegba crooner has once again reminded the world that he is not one to be underestimated or placed second to anyone.
