Wande Coal
is known to be both a musician and a mentor to some artistes in the
music industry. His life story, rising from the slums of Mushin to
becoming one of the most celebrated entertainers in Nigeria has inspired
the likes of Wizkid and Davido
In a
recent chat, the Black Diamond of Africa, Wande Coal, spoke about the
lingering beef between his mentees, Wizkid and Davido. He said that
although he is a mentor to both parties, he made it clear that he is
closer to Wizkid.
“I have
influenced the music of both Wizkid and Davido but the person with whom I
went through a lot with and greatly influenced is Wizkid. I don’t think
anybody should blame Wizkid for whatever action he takes. I know Wizkid
very well and I know that he learns from everything. He is a great kid
and I love him a lot. He is my brother and that is why he calls my name
in his songs. We bonded. With David, I feel he is a good artiste. In the
game called music, there would always be friction but it does not mean
that they are not cool with each other. People need to know that music
is competitive,” he said.
Though music is competitive but people do beef wizkid more to davido
