It is no longer news that Davido and WizKid are regarded as rivals in the music industry in Nigeria and events between the two superstar singers have made people to believe this to be true.

If the two artistes are not throwing jibes at each other, then one is waiting for the other to release his album before taking a similar step.

The media and their fans have also been ready to fuel anything that tilts towards rivalry between the two.

In a recent interview with Punch newspaper, Wande Coal stressed that Wizkid and Davido are cool but acknowledged that there are some frictions between them.

“I have influenced the music of both Wizkid and Davido but the person with whom I went through a lot with and greatly influenced is Wizkid. I don't think anybody should blame Wizkid for whatever action he takes.

“I know Wizkid very well and I know that he learns from everything. He is a great kid and I love him a lot. He is my brother and that is why he calls my name in his songs. We bonded. With David, I feel he is a good artiste. In the game called music, there would always be friction but it does not mean that they are not cool with each other. People need to know that music is competitive,” he said.

Recall that just a few days ago as Davido turned 23, WizKid gave him a special shout out on Twitter.
