Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, Damini Ogulu, aka Burna Boy, has subtly referred to his colleague Davido as a “joke.”

Burna Boy made the comment while firing back at a Davido fan who called him an “ode” for losing four Grammys recently.

Commenting under a post on Burna Boy’s X handle, the Davido fan, who used the DMW boss as his display picture, wrote: “Ode, bottled four Grammys,” to which Burna Boy replied, “The actual joke is in your display pic.”

Burna Boy later deleted his comment after the fan changed his display picture from Davido to the ‘African Giant.’

Another fan attempted to troll the singer for deleting his comment but Burna Boy explained that he did that because the troll changed his display picture.

The fan wrote, “Burna Boy no fit stand on business? He fold?,” and Burna Boy replied: “You nor see say baba don change am put my picture? Na me be joke?”

Despite the singer deleting his comment, it has continued to receive backlash on social media, with many condemning the comment.

See some of the reactions below:

@NuTyrant: “Burna Boy throwing shades at Davido unprovoked shows that he’s immature, one of the reasons he’ll always be categorized as a New Cat.”
