Nigerian singer Mr. May D has sparked a debate online with his claims that he could have surpassed Grammy-winning artist Wizkid’s success if not for his fallout with Square Records.
The controversial statement was made during a heated exchange on X (formerly Twitter) when Wizkid’s fans targeted him over a post he made in support of Davido.
May D’s Claim
May D, who was once affiliated with the famous music duo PSquare under their Square Records label, suggested his career trajectory would have outshone Wizkid’s if not for the split. He wrote:
“If no be wetin happen between me and PSquare, who be Wiz [Wizkid]? Chai.”
Conflict with Wizkid’s Fans
The backlash started after May D praised Davido in a post, which apparently angered Wizkid’s fans. Responding to their attacks, he said:
“Because I spoke about David, Wizkid boys are attacking me. Lmao, even Wiz know I love him. But if y’all come for me, I’ll finish all of you and your oga.”
He further claimed:
“Even your Wizkid knows his limits! Don’t f*ck with me.”
Mixed Reactions
Fans and critics have since taken to social media, with some defending May D’s position, acknowledging his talent and early contributions to the industry. Others dismissed his remarks, attributing his career setbacks to personal decisions rather than his fallout with PSquare.
May D’s comment has reignited conversations about the challenges of sustaining a music career and the influence of record label dynamics on an artist’s success.
