Davido Opens Up On Relationship With Rival Burna Boy
Davido has spoken out about his relationship with his industry colleague and perceived rival Burna Boy.
He claimed that although they no longer communicate frequently, they used to be very good friends contrary to how the media portrays their relationship and the corresponding friction between their fans.
Having appeared on the Morning Show on Hot 97FM in New York, Davido, who was interviewed by Ebro, claimed that he and Burna get along well.
The DMW boss added that the self-professed African Giant occasionally checks on him, particularly during and after his period of grieving. It will be recalled that the duo’s animosity reached a crescendo after an altercation at a nightclub in Ghana in 2020.
Interestingly, Davido said that the argument from that fateful night was between their crew members and not between either of them.
“Funny enough, it wasn’t even us. It was our people [team]. It was crazy because it didn’t even involve us,” he said.
Speaking on unity among Afrobeats artists, OBO said; “Afrobeats [artists] we are in unity. I spoke to Burna [Boy]. He called me. He calls me as well but we’ve not really spoken like that.”
On whether he plans to resolve his issues with the self-acclaimed African Giant, Davido said; “I think I definitely would. He [Burna Boy] called me. Wiz [Kid] called me. And funny enough, me and Burna used to be mad close. Very very close.”
