Deeone Links Davido to VDM’s Attack on Afrobeats Big Three
Nigerian comedian and former BBNaija star Martins Otse, popularly known as Deeone , has sparked reactions with a bold claim about VeryDarkMan’s recent viral rant against Afrobeats heavyweights Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy .
As previously reported by Legit.ng , VeryDarkMan (VDM) went viral after slamming the music stars for flaunting their wealth online. He also accused them of failing to make any real impact on Nigerians despite their global fame.
Reacting to VDM’s comments, Deeone dropped a surprising twist—he believes Davido is fueling the criticism out of personal jealousy toward Burna Boy.
“Davido Can’t Handle Burna’s Growth” – Deeone
Deeone claimed that Davido feels overshadowed by Burna Boy’s rise in both influence and international acclaim.
“He’s jealous,” Deeone said.
“He doesn’t like that Burna is getting more shine than him.”
He added that he has inside knowledge of how Davido sees his competition with Burna, suggesting that some of the negative buzz around Burna could be linked to OBO (Owner of Everything) —Davido’s close circle.
This accusation has reignited conversations about rivalry among top Afrobeats artists and the role social media personalities play in amplifying drama.
