“Honestly, this whole length 3-way conversation is pretty much whatever. You can’t diminish anyone’s greatness, whether they’re A-list, B-list, or anything else. Feel free to believe what you want or support whoever you choose—there’s plenty of room in the sky for everyone.”He then went on to highlight the maturity of the artists at the center of the debates, suggesting that they are above the petty disputes often manufactured by fans.“However, one thing to remember is that Burna, David, and Wiz aren’t narrow-minded enough to get offended by someone else’s opinion or perspective. That’s part of why they’ve reached where they are today.”
At the end, Olamide’s message simple: enjoy your fave, support who you love, but leave unnecessary war. The music industry get space for everybody to win.
