Trouble really looms for Nigerian young artistes who have suddenly become multi-millionaire courtesy the record label or management for their works of art which of course, have shot them to limelight.
This popularity and affluence they get seems to be having a negative impact on them. Remember the last time; Wizkid was enmeshed in a sex scandal with a woman old enough to be his mother. Davido, popularly called Omo Baba Olowo had some ripples with a cab man that led to Police hunting him about.
As you are reading this, the songster, David Adeleke a.k.a Davido is in the black book of His Eminence, Oba Saheed Elegushi. What happened?
It all went down at the after party of the Dynamix awards which took place at Voodoo Lounge, Elegushi beach. A reliable eye witness stated that B-Red was heavily drunk and was arguing with the King when Davido moved forward to touch the king, a taboo in African culture.
In a flash, the monarch delivered a hot and dirty slap on davido’s Face and asked the royal guards to mercilessly beat them. While this was going on, Davido’s bouncers, www.nigeriafilms.com gathered, was about to attack the royal guards when the king too ordered that they should be included in the royal beaten.
Though, Davido and B-Red, having realized their error after the whole show, prostrated and apologized to King Saheed when they were corrected by a member of the Crew.
‘These guys are digging their own grave. What exactly is wrong with these young spoilt brats’? Someone from the crowd asked rhetorically.
