Wizkid Finally Opens Up on Why Puma Chose Davido Over Him

Nigerian music star Wizkid has recently stirred up controversy by claiming that the global fashion brand Puma initially reached out to him before signing their current ambassador, Davido. The singer shared this information during a recent online outburst directed at Davido, making a series of bold statements that caught fans’ attention.

Wizkid revealed this while responding to a netizen who criticized him. According to Wizkid, he turned down the endorsement offer from Puma because their proposed budget didn’t meet his expectations. He stated that the fashion brand couldn’t afford his services at the time, as he had demanded a higher fee. However, he noted that their budget seemed suitable for Davido, who eventually became their brand ambassador.

The “Essence” crooner went further by asserting his superiority over other Nigerian artists, including Rema, Tems, and Burna Boy, implying that he is on a different level in terms of influence and impact. His comments have sparked mixed reactions among fans and the general public, with many questioning the validity of his claims and the motivation behind his statements.

This recent outburst is not the first time Wizkid has made headlines for his rivalry with Davido, as both artists have a history of subtle and direct exchanges over the years. As expected, this new development has reignited the long-standing debate over who holds the top spot in the Nigerian music industry, with fans of both artists taking sides on social media.

In a series of post, he wrote …
