Wizkid labels Don Jazzy as 'just an influencer', trolls Davido online

Nigerian artiste Wizkid has taken to social media to troll his colleague Davido and music executive Don Jazzy.

In the early hours of Monday, Wizkid was active on X, engaging fans and trolling Davido for reasons best known to him.

In the process, he fired a jab at Don Jazzy and labelled him an influencer.

In a post on his X account, Wizkid expressed, "Every day I get things to say but my mouth no good".

When a fan asked him to release new music, he humorously replied, "Is it by force?".

He then asked his fans to beg him for a new project, using Davido's recently viral crying video as an example. "Beg me like this," he posted alongside the viral video.

Wizkid's shots at Don Jazzy came after a fan asked him to respond to Jazzy's signee, Ladipo, who had been ranting about Wiz.

The fan said, "Wizkid, Ladipo still talk nonsense yesterday o, Abeg enter that one too."

Wizkid replied, "Lol, never chatting to anyone signed to an influencer. Next."

His description of the 'Mavin record label' boss as an influencer has since stirred massive reactions on social media.

Prior to this development, Wizkid distanced himself from being called an "Afrobeats artiste.

"Don't call me an Afrobeats artiste. I'm not Afro anything," he said.

Beg me like this. Send video 😎🦅 https://t.co/K3on1DlFSU pic.twitter.com/F2088rWT9t
