Terry G, a controversial Nigerian singer, has ranked Burna Boy above Davido and Wizkid.
He made this known during a recent chat with the Honest Buch podcast.
Although, he pointed out that the only “king” in Africa is Davido, he stated that Burna is above him and Wizkid.
Wizkid’s music style, he said, prevents Africans from connecting with his songs, while Burna Boy, on the other hand, is famous in both “Africa and internationally.”
The most recent edition of The Honest Bunch Podcast, co-hosted by actors Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, nicknamed Nedu, Husband Material, and Toun Cole, has the “Akpako Master” as a guest.
Terry G, speaking in Pidgin, remarked,
“The Wizkid vs Davido debate, to me is lame. Davido is the king of Africa. He have African audience.“He sing unapologetic African music. But Wizkid’s mindset is targeted at crossover. His music no dey too relate to us [Africans]. Burna Boy na im get Africa and International. His is their king. Burna pass two of them.”
In other news, Yemi Alade, a celebrated Nigerian singer, has revealed why she’s hardly recognized in the Nigerian music industry even though she has been very successful over the years.
The singer disclosed that, at one point in the industry, everyone in the industry wanted to have s3x with her in the hopes of gaining bigger prospects.
Yemi Alade claimed that because she decided to forgo having s3x with anyone, she was immediately denied access to several privileges.
She urged her followers to consider why, despite having the highest number of views and subscribers among Nigerian female artists on YouTube, she hardly ever receives attention from award ceremonies.
Yemi Alade revealed:
“There was a time in the industry when everyone wanted to sleep with me and it was like, ‘Yemi, if you don’t do this, you won’t have that. Today men is the reason I don’t win award in Nigeria.
….going down with men was like a bridge I had to cross to get on some platforms, get some deals and even awards. When I made my decision never to engage in sexual activities for gains, lots of opportunities were automatically blocked for me.
Ask yourself why Yemi Alade who is the most viewed and most subscribed Nigerian female artiste on YouTube gets almost no recognition from award shows year after year. Even during twitter debates, no one mentions Yemi Alade as one of the biggest female artistes in Nigeria.
They really blocked everything for me. But l’m glad coz l have my dignity, I have my life, l’m making cool cash and above all, I have fans who love me so much…”
