Olamide responds to backlash over Wizkid ranking

Rapper Olamide has addressed the controversy surrounding his recent comment ranking Wizkid as the top Afrobeats act after Fela Kuti.
TheTrustNews.com reports that the uproar began after Olamide made the remark during a press briefing in Toronto, Canada.
The rapper acknowledged differing opinions, saying the industry is wide enough for every artist to thrive.
Olamide emphasised that music lovers can support their preferred artists without diminishing others’ work.
He wrote: “Honestly, this whole lengthy 3-way conversation is pretty much whatever. You can’t diminish anyone’s greatness, whether they’re A-list, B-list, or anything else. Feel free to believe what you want or support whoever you choose – there’s plenty of room in the sky for everyone”.
He noted that top artists like Burna Boy, Davido, and Wizkid are unfazed by opinions, focusing on their craft instead.
“However, one thing to remember is that Burna, David, and Wiz aren’t narrow-minded enough to get offended by someone else’s opinion or perspective. That’s part of why they’ve reached where they are today,” Olamide wrote, urging fans to respect differing views.
