“Why are people telling me that I am better than Wizkid? How do I and Wizkid correlate? Do you know how many years I’ve been in this industry? Seven years.

“Next year, May 17 or 16, I will be 8 years in the industry and I’ve never met Wizkid. Although he has previously acknowledged me in New York. He posted one of my songs. Please, stop the comparison,” Speed Darlington exclaimed.

KanyiDaily recalls that Speed Darlington recently revealed why he would not collaborate with Afrobeats heavyweights such as Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy.
