CDQ Tells Fans to Stay Out of Wizkid and Davido Fight
Nigerian rapper Sodiq Abubakar Yusuf, popularly known as CDQ, has shared his thoughts on the ongoing feud between Afrobeats heavyweights Wizkid and Davido.
The two iconic artists, who have had a history of tension over the years, reignited their rivalry earlier this year with a series of posts on social media.
The rift came to the forefront again recently, when both stars made headlines for allegedly snubbing each other at a London nightclub over the weekend, causing a stir among fans and the media.
As discussions about the feud continue to heat up, CDQ has called for calm and neutrality from fans.
Taking to his Instagram stories, the rapper cautioned against taking sides in the ongoing conflict between the two superstars, comparing their relationship to that of a married couple.
He urged fans and industry observers to refrain from fueling the rivalry, instead allowing Wizkid and Davido to resolve their differences in their way.
In his post, CDQ wrote: “People shouldn’t involve themselves in Wiz and David’s fight. They are like husband and wife. Just let them play, they’ll work it out in time.”
CDQ’s message highlights the deep-seated connection between Wizkid and Davido, despite their public disagreements.
Both artists have been instrumental in putting Nigerian music on the global stage, and their success has drawn a large number of loyal fans who sometimes feel the need to choose sides when tensions arise.
However, CDQ is advocating for a different approach, suggesting that the public should not get involved in the drama between two of Nigeria’s most successful musical exports.
Wizkid and Davido’s rivalry is not new, as the two artists have had a competitive dynamic for years, often being pitted against each other by fans and the media.
Both artists have enjoyed significant success, with Wizkid achieving international acclaim for songs like Essence and Davido topping charts with hits like Fall and If.
The ongoing rivalry between them has been one of the most talked-about stories in the Nigerian entertainment industry, but CDQ’s remarks suggest that it might be less serious than it appears.
By referring to their relationship as similar to that of a “husband and wife,” CDQ underscores the idea that Wizkid and Davido’s differences are part of a long-running dynamic that will likely continue but may not lead to a permanent fallout.
He encourages fans to step back and allow the two artists to work through their issues without external interference.
As Wizkid and Davido continue to dominate the Afrobeats scene, the eyes of the industry and fans alike remain on them.
Whether their feud will continue or eventually cool down, CDQ’s comments serve as a reminder of the importance of letting artists handle their relationships without unnecessary outside influence.
For now, it seems that both stars will continue on their separate paths, but CDQ’s perspective offers hope that, like many disputes, this too shall pass.
Afrobeats sensation Ruger, born Michael Adebayo Olayinka, recently shared an inspiring story about his early days in the music industry. During an interview with VJ Adams, the singer revealed that he donated his very first paycheck—₦500,000—to his church, choosing not to spend a dime of it on himself.
His next payment? A cool ₦1 million, which he admits made him feel like he had “arrived.” That windfall led to a shopping spree, but the real shock came when even bigger paychecks started rolling in—all within his first year in the game.
Ruger also got candid about how money changed him. “Money changes everybody,” he said. “No one can say it didn’t change them. When you start making more, the way you think, act, and handle situations shifts. Some people stop stressing over small things once they’re financially secure.”
The “Bounce” hitmaker dreams of reaching a level of success where he no longer feels the need to react to negativity—much like his idol, Jay-Z. “Look at Jay-Z—he doesn’t even respond to insults because he’s secure in his success. That’s where I’m headed,” Ruger said with a laugh.
Justin Bieber recently opened up about his struggles with what he calls “transactional relationships.” He shared his frustration, revealing how he feels exhausted by constantly trying to earn affection. For him, if love feels like a transaction, then it’s not love at all.
He took to Instagram to express his thoughts, saying, “I’m tired of transactional relationships. If I have to do something to be loved, that’s not love.” In a post from a few weeks ago, he emphasized that true love is unconditional and not about giving and receiving in a calculated way. “Love isn’t a ‘you get what you put in’ kind of thing. It’s a receiving thing. True love is freely given with no expectation,” he explained.
This prompted speculation about possible tension in his marriage to Hailey Bieber, with some wondering if they were heading for a divorce. However, Hailey quickly put those rumors to rest during a May 20 interview with Vogue, calling the divorce talk a “mind-f*ck.”
