Wizkid Fires Shots at Burna Boy Over DJ Tunez Brawl, Trolls with Baby Oil Pictures
Wizkid has entered the fray following the recent altercation involving Burna Boy and DJ Tunez, escalating tensions with pointed social media posts that mock his fellow Nigerian music superstar.
Social Media Escalation
Hours after DJ Tunez publicly addressed the alleged physical confrontation with Burna Boy's camp, Wizkid took to X (formerly Twitter) with a series of posts that appear to directly target Burna Boy over the incident. In one particularly viral tweet, Wizkid wrote: "Pussy nigga jump a DJ with 10 man carry Diddy towel dey dance. I never see fool like this diddy babe for my life."
The post references claims that multiple individuals were involved in the confrontation with DJ Tunez while also connecting to ongoing online jokes linking Burna Boy to American music executive Diddy, who has faced numerous legal challenges.
Baby Oil Trolling
Wizkid doubled down on his social media attack by posting an image of Johnson's baby oil, creating a not-so-subtle callback to the same "baby oil" references that have trailed Burna Boy in recent days. This angle gained traction following comments made by Speed Darlington that have since taken on a life of their own across Nigerian social media platforms.
The timing of Wizkid's intervention is particularly significant as it coincides with escalating tensions between DJ Tunez and Burna Boy. The Nigerian DJ Association has already announced a temporary nationwide ban on Burna Boy's music pending further investigation into the incident, though Burna Boy himself has yet to issue any formal statement addressing the altercation.
Rivalry Reignited
What Wizkid's involvement accomplishes is a fundamental shift in how this situation is perceived. Until now, the altercation was viewed primarily as either a personal dispute or an industry issue between DJ Tunez and Burna Boy's camp. Wizkid's very public mocking pulls the conflict firmly back into the long-running, often tense rivalry between both superstar camps—a rivalry that has historically played out through musical competition, lyrical subtext, and occasional online shade-throwing.
This time, however, there appears to be very little ambiguity in Wizkid's intentions. His posts represent a direct challenge to Burna Boy at a moment when the latter is already facing industry backlash over the DJ Tunez incident. As of now, Burna Boy has not publicly responded to Wizkid's social media provocations, leaving fans and observers waiting to see if this will develop into another chapter in their storied competitive relationship.
The situation continues to unfold as the Nigerian entertainment community watches closely, with many noting that Wizkid's intervention has transformed what might have remained a contained dispute into a much broader conversation about celebrity behavior, industry politics, and the ongoing dynamics between Nigeria's biggest musical exports.
