Burna Boy Is Ahead Of Wizkid And Davido Worldwide— 2Face Idibia

Nigerian music icon 2Face Idibia has shared his thoughts on the current generation of superstars, Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Davido, and who he believes is leading the pack today.

Host Seun Okinbaloye asked 2Face, “If you were to choose one of the music of these artists, which one would you choose?” 2Face responded with respect for all, but singled out Burna Boy as being “on top of the game right now.”

He explained his perspective by saying, “Artistry, like I said earlier, different people have different styles. You understand what I’m saying? So every artist is a major in his field. So there’s nothing like one sings better than the other.”

But when it comes to overall artistry and impact, he emphasized Burna’s unique talent, “If an artist does this painting now, the next one he will paint will be different. So that’s how I see it.”

2Face further clarified his viewpoint, saying, “Different people will have different tastes of what they want and like. But I am going into a general aspect of this.”

He made it clear that his judgment is based on music and artistry alone, not on personal wealth or success, noting, “I don’t know their bank accounts, I don’t have any information about their personal successes or all that, I don’t have that.
From what I can measure from at least common sense and understanding of the music world, I think right now Burna is on top of this chain. Not just in Nigeria, in Africa, in the world.”
