Olamide sparked uproar after he made the declaration during a press conference in Toronto, Canada, with fans of Burna Boy and Davido immediately countering his claims on social media.
Renowned Nigerian rapper Olamide Adedeji, popularly known as Olamide Baddo, has responded to criticism following his recent claim that Wizkid is “the greatest Afrobeats artist after Fela.”
Olamide sparked uproar after he made the declaration during a press conference in Toronto, Canada, with fans of Burna Boy and Davido immediately countering his claims on social media.
Addressing the controversy via his X handle on Friday, Olamide said everyone is entitled to their opinion, stressing that there is enough room in the sky for everyone.
He explained that both Burna Boy, Davido, and Wizkid are narrow-minded to get offended by someone else’s opinion or perspective.
He wrote, “Honestly, this whole lengthy 3-way conversation is pretty much whatever. You can’t diminish anyone’s greatness, whether they’re A-list, B-list, or anything else. Feel free to believe what you want or support whoever you choose—there’s plenty of room in the sky for everyone.
“However, one thing to remember is that Burna, David, and Wiz aren’t narrow-minded enough to get offended by someone else’s opinion or perspective. That’s part of why they’ve reached where they are today.”
