He spoke after being asked to list the three artistes he is currently listening to.
Veteran Nigerian singer D’banj has named his top three music stars.
He mentioned Rema, Davido and Burna Boy, excluding the global Afrobeats sensation Wizkid.
He made this known during an appearance on the Adesope Live podcast.
“Shout out to Rema. I like his energy… Then there is Davido. People should learn from the way he carries himself, like he doesn’t have a penny, yet he’s so consistent. Burna Boy is too intentional, his live shows are amazing,” D’banj remarked.
Reactions as D’Banj lists his top three artistes:

sirleocarter penned: “Adesope? You and Big Wiz get crash? Everyone is entitled to their opinion but when it comes to replay value, Wiz is the king. You can’t stop a moving train.”
jimohcav reacted: “How will you expect him to like Wizkid? It’s Wizkid that overthrew him and his likes. He knows he can never be like 2Baba that Wizkid sees as a true legend in the industry… Wizkid pass all this noise-making musicians.”
lekzymilli opined: “So you no include Wiz? Oya na, we dey wait you 😂😂”
bsuleiman45 added: “His opinions though. Let’s not harbour unnecessary hate 😂😂. Everyone has a right to their choice. Like me, I haven’t played a D’banj song in over 15 years—doesn’t mean I hate him. Let’s chill. 😂😂 One thing I know be say Sope no like Wiz. He’s Wiz’s number one hater no 🧢. Una no fit understand sha 😂😂.”
