Burna Boy found himself in the middle of a viral storm after Wizkid also joined the discussion after a reported clash with DJ Tunez sparked a backlash from the industry.
Burna Boy may have the voice of an angel and the demeanor of a general, but now his name is being circulated in Nigeria for the wrong reasons.
The Grammy winner is at the center of a chaotic rumor storm involving Wizkid’s trusted man of choice, DJ Tunez.
This is what people say happened.
Reports say the situation has deteriorated at Obi’s House, a famous party venue in Lagos where artists, DJs and industry insiders often gather. DJ Tunez was spinning and working the room as usual. Burna Boy reportedly attended the event as a guest. At some point that night, things allegedly turned physical. Some viral videos showed chaotic scenes, with people swaying and even security personnel scrambling. There’s no good footage of how it started.
DJ Tunez later spoke out on social media. He said, “This n###a Burna Boy, all the weaknesses showed. First of all, you hit me in the back of the head without me looking, and that was really bad, my boy. 1 on 10, I stood my ground.” This can go bad fast.
Then Wizkid came in. He never jumps into drama. But this time he did it. He posted: “P###yn###a dancing to a 10-person DJ.” He is very loyal.
Is this really about Burna Boy and Wizkid? Some say it may have started because Tunez wasn’t playing Berner’s music that night, while others say it was the overall competitive energy. There is no confirmation yet.
The Nigerian DJ Association is not calling for a boycott of Burna Boy’s records! This has hit America! DJs are performing.
Burna Boy said nothing.
Oh, boy. 2026 needs to slow down.
