You know when Wizkid said what the Big 3 are doing right now, the next generation is coming to surpass them? This is exactly what he meant. Legacy, legacy.
The exact reason Carter Efe is angry with Wizkid was because Wiz gave that God Over guy 20 million naira! He feels he has been promoting Wiz the longest & should be getting the money!
This is why it’s not good to give fans money! Cos it will promote jealousy and entitlement!!
“We are just scratching the surface, Me, davido and Burna boy are just scratching the surface, the next generation are going to take it beyond” — Wizkid
