Controversial Nigerian rapper Speed Darlington recently issued a stern warning to his fans, urging them to cease comparing him to the renowned singer Wizkid.

The 'Akpi' artist expressed frustration over frequent comparisons with Wizkid, stating that some fans claim he surpasses the Starboy boss in talent.

Speed Darlington emphasized his displeasure with the ongoing comparison and highlighted his nearly 8-year tenure in the music industry. Despite this, he revealed that he and Wizkid have never crossed paths, despite the singer once acknowledging him in New York.

Speaking during a recent Instagram live session with fans, Speed Darlington fumed: “Why are people telling me that I am better than Wizkid? How do I and Wizkid correlate? Do you know how many years I’ve been in this industry? Seven years. Next year, May 17 or 16, I will be 8 years in the industry and I’ve never met Wizkid. Although he has previously acknowledged me in New York. He posted one of my songs. Please, stop the comparison.”
