Nigerian superstar Davido has questioned South Africa’s DJ Maphorisa on why he doesn’t like him in a rather surprising tweet.
It all began when a rather presumptuous Twitter user and a Davido fan tweeted that Davido brought Amapiano to Nigeria and popularize the genre after his getting on Focalistic’s‘K–Star‘ remix.
The tweet further claimed that Wizkid latest’s single ‘Bad For Me’ was a desperate attempt to glean a hit after Davido’s purported importation of the South African genre.
The tweet got many reactions as Twitter users, especially Wizkid fans engaged in varying history lessons in a bid to set the record straight.
As the conversations about the earliest interactions of Nigerian artists with Amapiano raged on, South African DJ, DJ Maphorisa took it upon himself to set the record straight.
Kabza & Maphorisa was the first to put Wizkid n Burnaboy on a amapiano song Sponono dat was a historical moment 3 years ago, research before tweet
also it was the first time Wiz n Burna jumped on a same song together
let it sink in 🦅❤️ https://t.co/AHkxFmH3Lk

Maphorisa didn’t mention Davido name. All he did was clear the lies
How does that translate to him not liking Davido?
Same person that has wrote and produced a song for Davido in the past.

From day one Niniola has been referred to as Queen of Amapiano. That's the genre of her music in Nigeria, the only artiste that started with that sound and never changed but una wan attribute it to una celeb.

😭😭😭😂 haibo Davido did what? Not “Davido fans” giving Davido credit for everything😂 South African Amapiano artists put Amapiano where it is now.

For the record, Wizkid is among the first set of people to do Amapiano before Nigerian artistes caught the virus, DJ Maphorisa even said Wizkid introduced the sound to him.
