Nothing gets the internet going like a hot and spicy celebrity showdown. From Olamide dividing Lagos into two (one for him and the other for Don Jazzy) to Wizkid dragging Davido by his invisible edges by likening his voice to that of a frog, the internet has given us some of the most hilarious beefs of the decade.
Olamide vs. Don Jazzy (2016)
Remember the time Olamide banned Don Jazzy from the mainland and told him to #LeaveTrashForLawma? We do too! This beef which started at the 2015 Headies after Reekado Bankz (Mavin) won the next rated award over Lil Kesh (YBNL), was one of the biggest celebrity showdowns we鈥檝e witnessed in real-time, and probably the last time people tuned in to watch that award show. The beef was so bad it got reactions from both and . Talk about impact! Who can forget the shady DJ who kept dropping diss tracks after each opponent made his point?聽
PSquare vs. PSquare vs. The Other Okoye Brother (2017)
Nollywood always hammered on the saying 鈥淏lood is thicker than water鈥, but in聽 2017, after many years of wowing audiences around the world with their love songs and dance moves, PSquare decided to break up and go their separate ways. But instead of keeping it classy, the brothers (and their other non-singing brother, Jude) dragged each other for filth on the interwebs. And in typical Nigerian fashion, their wives ended up catching stray bullets as agents of discord. While they recently reunited to post their bank account details and collect money on Twitter, fans are still holding out hope for a musical reunion.聽
Wizkid vs. Davido (2017)
Davido made fun of Wizkid for shooting his Come Closer video with an invisible Drake, and Wizkid called him 鈥渇rog voice鈥. Wizkid went on to call Davido a 鈥渓ocal artist鈥, to which Davido responded with a major flex, an American passport (God when?). The whole thing was so chaotic we enjoyed every single bit of it.
Tiwa Savage vs. Seyi Shay (2021)
Imagine going to the salon to get your hair done and then getting front row seats to the biggest celebrity showdown of 2021? A prime example of 鈥渕aintaining the same energy offline鈥, the whole shebang happened when, after allegedly dissing Tiwa in a track, Seyi Shay decided to form familiarity at a salon. In a , Tiwa called bullshit and proceeded to drag Seyi Shay by her edges.聽聽
Burna vs. Davido (2020)
It鈥檚 hard to pinpoint the origin of this beef. One minute, Burna Boy is attributing Davido鈥檚 success to daddy鈥檚 money, next thing, there鈥檚 a full-on wrestling match in a Ghanaian club. From Fem to Way Too Big, these two have been subbing each other for a while now. The pettiest part has to be when Davido posted a picture with Wizkid which he tagged 鈥淭he two greatest of all time, no cap.鈥 And we all know how Burna gets when his 鈥淎frican giant鈥 status is not recognized. If you don鈥檛 get this, ask Coachella.
