Ruger and Joeboy Hint at Rivalry as They Prepare to Drop New Albums
Nigerian singers Ruger and Joeboy appeared to be caught in a subtle rivalry on social media ahead of their album releases on March 28. On Thursday, March 27, both artists shared cryptic posts on X that seemed to be aimed at each other.
Ruger kicked things off by bragging that his sophomore album, Blown Boy Ru, would force some of his peers to rethink their work, while others wouldn’t even get the chance since they were releasing their albums on the same day.
He wrote, “Some people will have to go back to the studio after they hear this album. Some won’t even have the chance because they’re dropping on the same day as me. Sad!”
Fans quickly speculated that Ruger was throwing shade at Joeboy, whose album Viva Lavida is also set to drop on March 28. Not long after, Joeboy responded with a cryptic post of his own, suggesting that some artists were trying to compete with him.
He wrote, “The sky is big enough for everyone to fly, but some people are choosing to fly right beside me. Lol. I get it — I inspire you.” Fans were quick to link Joeboy’s post to Ruger’s earlier statement.
This isn’t the first time Nigerian stars have clashed over release dates. In May 2022, fans of Burna Boy and Davido went head-to-head online after both artists dropped their hit singles Last Last and Stand Strong on the same day. Davido initially celebrated when Stand Strong topped the Apple Music chart, but Burna Boy later took the lead with Last Last.
Nigerian pastor Dolapo Lawal spoke on the reality of living abroad and what people do not see online.
He shared the insight that many Nigerians who relocate to other countries mainly move there for survival and not necessarily for wealth.
“How many people you know that are in the UK who are billionaires? They go there to survive. They don’t go there to be rich. All of them are going there to do care jobs. They’re going there to survive.”
He then shared that it is better to be a billionaire in Nigeria and stated that success can sometimes come easier at home than relocating abroad.
Sandra has spoken out and broken her silence on the alleged affair involving Chike. She shared that she was faithful throughout her marriage and claimed that only Frank Edoho cheated.
Sandra revealed that Frank allegedly cheated multiple times and even claimed that a particular woman was frequently seen around their home, stating that he was definitely involved with her.
She also stated that she has evidence against Frank, including receipts from hotels and places where he allegedly met with his dates.
Popular singer Shakira and Nigerian singer Burna Boy have reportedly released “Daidia,” a song linked to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It was also noted that the two artists are expected to perform during the event, and the song for the occasion has now been released.
This will not be the first time Shakira will perform for the World Cup. Whenever her name is mentioned, many people remember “Waka Waka,” the iconic World Cup song released for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is scheduled to take place from June 11, 2026, to July 19, 2026, across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Many fans are already excited and cannot wait to see the live performance on the big stage.
