Nigerian singer Kizz Daniel has once again proven his maturity and commitment to maintaining a positive image in the music industry. In a recent exchange on social media, a fan urged the ‘Buga’ hitmaker to take a jab at Grammy-winning artist Wizkid. However, Kizz Daniel firmly refused and instead emphasized the importance of respect and unity among musicians.
The exchange took place when a fan, identified as @continentalBoy2, suggested that Kizz Daniel diss Wizkid, likely referencing the ongoing tensions between Wizkid and fellow Nigerian artist Davido. Despite the pressure from the fan, Kizz Daniel replied, ‘I bet 30BG will love this. Na Machala and Baddest workings most of us dey enjoy now, it will be unwise my brother. Respect the ones before you.’
Kizz Daniel’s response highlighted his belief that creating unnecessary drama or conflict within the industry is not beneficial. His stance reflects his larger philosophy of focusing on personal growth and respecting the trailblazers who laid the foundation for the industry’s success.
This interaction occurred during a conversation with fans of 30BG, a fanbase associated with Davido, who expressed admiration for Kizz Daniel’s work. One fan, @TUMMYOF30BG, showed love by saying, ‘Bro, but 30BG love you sha. Just know that.’ Kizz Daniel, appreciative of the love, responded, ‘Then let 30BG show it … Y’all are rugged and hyped, Vaddicts are calculative and Wise perfect blend.’
Additionally, Kizz Daniel took the opportunity to pay homage to Nigerian music industry pioneers in a tweet.
Kizz Daniel referred to Olamide as the ‘godfather of the new music industry.’ He also expressed admiration for Don Jazzy and Phyno, praising their contributions to Nigerian music.
His words highlight the importance of unity and respect in an industry often defined by competition and rivalry.
