Maphorisa in response to a Davido fan who opined that Davido brought Amapiano from South Africa two years ago and made it a successful genre in Africa and beyond, while berating Wizkid for jumping on the genre after Davido made it commercially successful.
She tweeted
“Davido brought Amapiano from South Africa two years ago and made it a successful genre in Africa and Beyond, Wizkid is now hopping on the same genre after Davido made it a successful genre”.

He advised the fan to research before tweeting.
He ended with Wizkid’s emoji Eagle and love emoji.
This rattled Davido who swiftly responded that DJ Maphorisa never liked him.

DJ Maphorisa responded thus:
