Musically, I was bigger than Wizkid, Davido – May D

Nigerian singer May D has stated that there was a time when he was on the same level as global Afrobeat icons Wizkid and Davido, and even surpassed them in popularity.

In a recent episode of The Honest Bunch podcast, May D compared his hit song “Soundtrack” to Wizkid’s “Holla at Your Boy”, stating that his song was more successful.

He said: “Then it was Wizkid, David, and I. I was even like bigger. Wetin be ‘Holla at Your Boy’ compared to ‘Soundtrack?’”

May D previously claimed that Wizkid’s success was partly due to his departure from Square Records, May D’s former label.
