Nigerian music luminary, Michael Collins Ajereh, popularly known as Don Jazzy, has broken his silence in response to recent remarks by fellow artist Wizkid, igniting a stir within the music community.
Today, on Monday, April 29, 2024, Wizkid sparked controversy with critical remarks aimed at Don Jazzy. The Star Boy executive launched into a verbal assault targeting not only Don Jazzy but also his protege, Ladipoe, and fellow Afrobeats sensation Davido. Labeling Don Jazzy as an “influencer,” Wizkid's comments came in response to a fan's query about Ladipoe's recent remarks on the Afrobeats genre.
In his retort, Wizkid dismissed Ladipoe's significance, claiming he wasn't worthy of attention as he was signed to an “influencer,” a reference to Don Jazzy. Following this online altercation, an examination of their Instagram profiles revealed that Don Jazzy has since unfollowed Wizkid.
This development underscores the escalating tensions between the two prominent figures in the Nigerian music scene, hinting at a potential strain in their professional relationship. Fans and industry insiders are closely observing the situation, anticipating further developments and potential reconciliations amid the unfolding drama.
