- While mercilessly dragging Davido to filth, Wizkid revealed that Puma approached him first, but he declined due to their low offer.
- In an online exchange, Wizkid stated that Puma’s budget though was fitting for Davido, but not for him.
- He disclosed this in response to an X user who blasted him for attacking Davido who’s currently unveiling his new collections with Puma.
Grammy winner, Wizkid recently disclosed how the global fashion brand Puma, initially approached him and he turned down their offer before they turned to Davido.
This revelation came during a heated exchange online, where Wizkid responded to criticism from a fan of Davido who took it upon himself to reply to Wizkid’s bitter rants about OBO.
Speaking, Wizkid revealed that he declined Puma’s offer because they couldn’t meet his financial demands.
He implied that their budget, though fitting for Davido, wasn’t sufficient for him.
He went on to state that he is bigger than Nigerian artists like Rema, Tems, and Burna Boy and this has nothing to do with jealousy but facts.
In his words:
“U idiot! I turned down Puma cos they could no longer afford to pay me cos I wanted more! Don’t need dat! Way bigger than every artiste u just mentioned! Not jealous ! love em all…With ur dirty ass shirt! Idiot!
No ! Puma is Big brand! But the budget they had for Africa wasn’t for me! Was cool for your client tho! 🦅”

In another report, Wizkid lashed out at Davido, delivering a barrage of criticism aimed at Davido’s personal style, music ability, and financial status.
Wizkid declared that Davido falls short in several areas, including his fashion sense, musical talent, and financial earnings, adding that Davido’s public image is inflated. The comment suggests a deep-seated rivalry between the two Nigerian music giants.
Wizkid dismissively referred to Davido as a “spoilt rich child,” implying that Davido’s wealth is primarily inherited rather than earned. He went on to criticize the people surrounding Davido, labelling them as broke and accused Davido of using his wealth to gather people around him to boost his ego.
Wizkid claimed that Davido surrounds himself with broke boys and a lawyer who follows him everywhere like Basket Mouth contrary to his lawyer who is quite occupied with a lot of tangible issues.
Wizkid accused Davido of weaponizing poverty by providing his entourage with visas and financial support, which, according to him, keeps them subservient. He dismissed Davido’s self-proclaimed title of “001” or the top artist in Nigeria, asserting that it’s only relevant in his own house, but not in the real-world music industry.
