- Dbanj sparked buzz online during his chat with Adesope Live after he revealed his top three music artists he is listening to, without mentioning Wizkid
- Dbanj praised Rema’s youthful drive, applauded Davido for maintaining humility despite wealth, and hailed Burna Boy for his intentional artistry
- The omission of Wizkid didn’t sit well with many netizens, especially die-hard members of Wizkid FC.
Nigerian music icon Dbanj has set tongues wagging after a recent interview where he listed his current top three music artists, and Wizkid’s name was noticeably missing.
During a candid chat on Adesope Live, the Koko Master praised Rema, Davido, and Burna Boy, showering them with compliments over their energy, humility, and stage presence.
Dbanj told Adesope:
“Shout out to Rema. I like his energy… Then there is Davido. People should learn from the way he carries himself, like he doesn’t have a penny, yet he’s so consistent. Burna Boy is too intentional, his live shows are amazing”
But while many applauded his picks, some music lovers quickly noticed he didn’t mention Wizkid, one of Nigeria’s most celebrated global acts.
