Music executive, Ubi Franklin has shared his opinion on Nigerian superstars, Wizkid, Davido and Burna Boy, widely regarded as Afrobeats’ “Big 3.”

Speaking in a recent episode of the Afropolitan podcast, Franklin explained that it would be difficult for the trio to collaborate, stressing that their positions as the “Big 3” make them rivals rather than collaborators.

The talent manager noted that there are fierce competitors in every industry, using the rivalry between top Nigerian banks to buttress his point.

He, however, claimed that the beef between the Afrobeats stars isn’t beyond entertainment, emphasing that he has never heard his associate Davido gossip about Wizkid and Burna Boy to his inner circle and he believes it’s mutual.

“It would be difficult for Wizkid, Davido and Burna Boy to come together. I will speak for Davido, I have never heard him for once said something ill about Wizkid or Burna Boy. And I’m sure it’s the same for them. But the environment [industry] they are will make it difficult for them to work together.

“It’s like the rivalry between the top banks in Nigeria. In every industry, there is the big 3,” he stated.
