A new video showing Ayodeji 'Wizkid' Balogun's first son, Bolutife 'Bolu' Balogun, has set social media abuzz. The clip captures the teenage music artist enjoying himself at an event while a song featuring his father's longtime rival, Davido, played in the background.
Bolu Balogun's Carefree Dance Moment
The video, which surfaced online on December 16, 2025, features Bolu enthusiastically dancing and vibing. The track playing is Nakupenda by South African artists TxC and Scotts Maphuma, which features vocals from Davido. Bolu, who recently released his debut single Champion Sound, was seen making gestures to the camera, clearly enjoying the music without any reservations.
Nigerian Fans Applaud Bolu's Neutral Stance
Reactions from fans have been largely supportive of Bolu's actions. Many pointed out that the teenager should not be expected to inherit the well-documented rivalry between his father, Wizkid, and fellow superstar Davido. The online commentary suggests a public weariness of the prolonged feud.
One fan, @uncle_merit89, commented: "That boy no send both him papa and Davido na them know wetin dem dey beef for." Another user, @olayimartha, philosophically noted, "Music no need permission to enter your spirit." The sentiment "Life no hard," from user @tochi_lifestyle, perfectly captured the prevailing mood that Bolu was simply enjoying good music as a young person should.
Background of the Wizkid-Davido Rivalry
The incident gains significance due to the long-standing and often public rivalry between the two afrobeats giants, Wizkid and Davido. Their competition has played out in music charts, award shows, and on social media for years, with their camps occasionally trading jabs. Most recently, aides DJ Tunez (for Wizkid) and Isreal DMW (for Davido) were involved in an online spat related to their bosses' feud.
Fans have used Bolu's video to send a subtle memo to both artists, implying that the younger generation is focused on the music itself rather than industry conflicts. This event follows another recent family moment where Bolu was seen supporting his brother, Zion, at a birthday party.
