The situation has led to their fans engaging in social media wars, and it has been a big topic of discussion among the Nigerian music industry. Despite this, both of them have also shown appreciation for each other’s talent, and there were also rumours of them resolving their beef and collaborating on music together. However, this has not happened yet, though the afro hitmakers might share stage this year.
