The latest feud between Burna Boy and Davido has sent shockwaves through the Nigerian entertainment industry, leaving fans divided. However, speculation suggests the drama may be tied to the recently concluded 2025 Grammy voting.
Both artists were nominated in the Best African Music Performance category, alongside other Nigerian stars, including:
•Yemi Alade (Tomorrow)
• Asake & Wizkid (MMS)
• Chris Brown feat. Davido & Lojay (Sensational)
• Burna Boy (Higher)
• Tems (Love Me JeJe)
In addition, Tems and Rema were also nominated in the Best Global Music Album category for Born in the Wild and Heis, respectively.
The timing of Burna Boy’s recent jabs—coinciding with the conclusion of Grammy voting—has raised speculation that either both he and Davido lost, or that Davido won the coveted Best African Music Performance award with Sensational.
Fans and insiders alike are debating whether the Grammys were the catalyst for the feud or just another chapter in the long-standing rivalry between the two Afrobeats heavyweights.
