Davido has fired back at fellow Nigerian rapper Erigga after Erigga praised musicians who built their careers without coming from family money.
Erigga wrote on X: “Shoutout to all the musicians who don’t come from family money and had to grind for every single dollar they earn.”
Davido responded to the post by pointing to artists who come from wealthy families but still worked to build successful careers.
“No be we say make your pops no guard o,” Davido wrote. “Shoutout to the ones that came from family money and still grind to the top. Comot here with that your useless motivation … imb3cile.”
Davido is the son of Nigerian businessman Adedeji Adeleke. His response appeared to challenge the idea that artists from wealthy families should be excluded from conversations about hard work and perseverance.
Erigga’s original post did not explicitly name any musician.
