Nigerian afrobeat singer, Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid has put an end to what seemed like a beef or disrespect to Mavin Records boss, Don Jazzy.
Earlier in April, Marvin Records signee Ladipoe posted that Afrobeats stars were going through their own “Afrobeats is dead era” after Nigerian hip hop had been through the “hip hop is dead era”.
Wizkid had earlier commented that “hip hop was dead” which generated criticism and reactions from Nigerian rappers with Oladips and Zila Oaks releasing diss records aimed at Machala, as usually called.
During an online interactive session, some fans called Wizkid’s attention to Ladipoe’s comments as they felt it was targeted at Big Wiz.
Wizkid, while reacting to the diss comment made by Ladipoe, referred to Don Jazzy as an influencer by saying he can’t engage a rapper signed to an influencer.
However, the Mavin Records boss didn’t react to Wizkid’s “influencer” comment, he rather thanked the Grammy award winner for posting the streaming link to Ayra Starr’s new album titled ‘The Year I Turned 21’.
Wizkid has laid speculations of any potential rift with Don Jazzy to rest in a recent tweet where he referred to the legendary producer and label boss as an “amazing human”.
