- Nigerian singer Brymo has launched a fresh attack on top Afrobeats stars, accusing Burna Boy, Davido, and others of exploiting rising artists by jumping on remixes of trending songs.
- He claims these collaborations are more about maintaining relevance than offering genuine support.
- The outburst adds to Brymo’s long history of feuds with industry heavyweights, including past personal allegations and controversial confessions that have drawn backlash from fans and fellow artists alike.
Brymo is back in the headlines — and once again, he’s not holding back.
The Nigerian singer-songwriter has taken aim at the country’s biggest music stars, accusing them of riding the wave of younger artists by constantly appearing on remixes of trending songs. In a fiery Instagram post, he called out Burna Boy, Davido, and others, claiming their involvement in these tracks is less about mentorship and more about clinging to relevance.

The message has reignited long-standing tensions between Brymo and the mainstream music scene. Over the years, he’s clashed with several A-listers, including 2face, whom he mocked over family matters, and Burna Boy, whom he’s repeatedly challenged on lyrical depth and artistic credibility.
Brymo’s criticism isn’t limited to music. He’s made controversial remarks about personal relationships, including a past confession that he demanded intimacy from female collaborators — a revelation that drew sharp rebuke from Adekunle Gold, who defended his wife, Simi, and urged Brymo to seek help.
Despite the backlash, Brymo continues to position himself as a lone voice challenging the status quo. His latest rant has sparked debate about remix culture, power dynamics in the industry, and the ethics of collaboration between established stars and emerging talent.
Whether seen as a truth-teller or a provocateur, Brymo’s presence in the conversation remains impossible to ignore — and his words continue to stir both admiration and outrage across Nigeria’s music landscape.
