Afrobeats star Burna Boy has caused a stir on social media with a subtle jab aimed at his colleague, Davido, over the latter’s Grammy win. The drama comes amid an ongoing feud between Burna Boy and Cubana Chief Priest, a close associate of Davido, which has been making headlines. Cubana Chief Priest recently responded to what he believed was Burna Boy’s shade directed at him, calling the artist a “bend down Grammy collector” in a post on Instagram.
In response, Burna Boy took to Instagram with a now-deleted post, where he jokingly acknowledged the “bend down” Grammy claim while questioning whether Davido even owned a Grammy. The post read, “Yes, Diddy oil me and I won my first ever Grammy. Your boss get am?”
This exchange reignites the long-standing tension between Burna Boy and others in the industry. Last year, Burna Boy was involved in a controversy with Speed Darlington, leading to the latter’s arrest, following Darlington’s remarks about Burna Boy’s Grammy win and his connection to American mogul Diddy Combs.
