Burna Boy Throws Shade At Davido Laughing at “Dwmdavido” During Livestream

Written by on 10/31/2025

Burna Boy’s brief appearance on a livestream with PlaqueBoyMax has fans convinced that his feud with Davido is far from over.

During the roughly 30-minute session, a viewer named “dwmdavido” gifted Max ten subscriptions — a gesture Burna immediately noticed. He let out a short laugh and said, “Nah, nah, man,” brushing it off with a smirk that said more than words ever could.

It might seem minor, but for fans who’ve tracked the long-standing tension between the two Afrobeats giants, it was enough to reignite debate. The pair — once collaborators on early cuts like “Trumpet” (2011) and a 2016 remix — have been distant since their falling out around 2019. Burna’s reaction, paired with his knowing glance, read like a subtle acknowledgment of a rivalry that’s never quite cooled.

Both artists are at career peaks: Burna Boy continues his global takeover with arena tours and Grammy wins, while Davido’s 5 Ive album dominated 2025 charts across Africa and the diaspora. Yet, under the surface lies a quiet competition — one built on legacy, influence, and pride.

For fans, the “dwmdavido” gift wasn’t just a random username — it was a digital wink. Burna’s restrained reaction spoke volumes, reminding everyone that in today’s Afrobeats landscape, even a twitch of an eyebrow can trend.

Whether Davido will respond directly remains to be seen, but in the streaming age, silence often says the most. For now, one thing’s clear — the Burna vs. Davido saga still holds the stage.
