They both are among the top musicians in Nigeria currently talked about by fans. In addition to leading the list of richest Nigerian musicians they also rank among the wealthiest musicians in Africa.
On Sunday, December 24, 2019, the star boy held his home-coming concert tagged ‘Wizkid: The concert, and officially squashed his beef with long time rival, Davido.
The ‘come closer’ singer, who has been praised earlier this year for his grand performance at the Royal Albert Hall in London, took over the Eko convention centre in Lagos last Sunday night and Wizkid, who hadn’t held a concert in Lagos in six years made it a memorable night.
Indeed, to fans surprise the singer, brought Davido on stage where they both performed to OBO’s hit single ‘FIA,’ shared a hug officially ending their feud.
The Nigerian music stars have been at war all through 2019 with their rivalry dividing their fans who spent all year fighting in social media comment sections.
The Wizkid – Davido reunion was one of the biggest moments of the show, the star also made sure his home coming concert was everything an Afrobeats lover could have dreamt of on Christmas.
This is what made fans think they might have a song together since they are on good terms now. Furthermore, their fans have talked about how fabulous and fantastic the song will be.
R&B star, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has recounted the early-career challenges she faced, revealing that she was once booed out of the stage while performing at a school event.
Speaking in an interview with Newsmen, the Crazy Tings crooner shared that she wasn’t only booed but was also harassed with plastic bottles.
“I remember one time I was going to perform at my school as an up-and-coming singer and I thought I was going to receiving a standing ovation.
“But I got booed. They even threw plastic bottles at me,” she recalled.
Tems explained that despite the embarrassing incident and other such rejections, she remained determined to pursue a career in music.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Tems admitted that some of the initial rejections she faced could be due to her conviction to stick to her originality instead of doing covers or familiar sounds like most of her peers.
The Grammy-winning singer said looking back now, she is glad that she didn’t compromise her style despite the initial pressures.
A close associate of late singer Mohbad, Primeboy, has appealed for the artiste’s burial nearly three years after his death.
According to him, Mohbad’s body remains in the mortuary since September 12, 2023, pending burial arrangements.
The Tide Entertainment reports that in a statement Primeboy urged the family, public, and government to permit the burial, stating, “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial.”
It would be recalled that Mohbad’s death sparked public outrage, protests, and investigations. Ongoing autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements amid family disagreements and public scrutiny.
