In the dynamic realm of celebrity where rivalries abound and alliances are ever-changing, the phenomenon of successful stars maintaining genuine connections amidst competitive pressures is notably rare. This rings true for the Afrobeats scene, particularly among its acclaimed 'big 3'—Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy. Recently, Davido offered an insightful glimpse into his relationships with his fellow artists during an appearance on the show "Sway’s Universe."


As a guest on the popular American program, the Nigerian music star, known for hits like “Unavailable,” discussed the nuances of his interactions with Wizkid and Burna Boy. Addressing the frequency of their communication, Davido admitted that they do not regularly stay in touch, despite having each other's contact information and acknowledging their different backgrounds.


Davido emphasized the geographical separation between them, noting that each artist represents different regions of Nigeria. However, he affirmed that despite the physical and professional distances, they all share the common thread of divine blessings that have propelled their careers in music.


During the interview, Davido also addressed the perception that he, along with Wizkid and Burna Boy, are the leading trio in the global Afrobeats arena. Challenging this notion, he made a bold declaration about his status within the industry.

"I am big me,"

Davido asserted, distinguishing himself as a singular force in the Afrobeats scene.
