US-based Nigerian Hip Hop artiste, Speed Darlington has released a diss track against Afrobeats star, Wizkid following his comment about rappers.

Speedy, as he is fondly called described Wizzy as a whack artiste who cannot measure up to him in terms of his lifestyle.

He warned Wizkid not to be in the same vicinity as him either in New York, USA or Imo and Lagos state, Nigeria.

In the diss video shared on Twitter by @Oghenerie_jnr, the internet sensation bragged about throwing some of the best parties with many pretty girls, saying that the type Wizkid hosts is usually low budget.

Meanwhile, Wizkid’s official Disc Jockey, DJ Tunez earlier said the comment made by the Grammy winner about rap was not directed at Nigerian rappers.

He took to his Twitter account to make clarifications regarding what was seen as a insult to Hip Hop acts in the country.

It may be recalled that during an interview with 10 magazine the “Essence” crooner said rap is dead while arguing in favour of Afrobeats dominating the Hip Hop genre.

According to the Starboy Entertainment founder, the Hip Hop artistes mostly rap on the same beats, and they have similar styles.

Wizkid also took to social media and said Nigerian rappers are non-rappers who lack development and he went on to list the South Africa’s Nasty C and Ghana’s Sarkodie as the ‘real rappers’ in Africa.

Subsequently, Wizkid received backlash mostly from Nigerian rap artistes who either responded to him online or released diss raps.

Speaking on the heels of how rappers attacked Big Wiz, DJ Tunez asked them if they really think his interview wa about them.

He tweeted; ”Y’all really think baba was talking bout y’all in that article?  Come on guys!”
