DJ Tunez, personal disc jockey to singer Wizkid, has described Burna Boy's music as "rubbish" during a live set in London. The comment came while DJ Tunez played Burna Boy's hit song "Last Last" but muted the vocals before making the remark. A video of the incident, which has gone viral, shows audience members reacting with both cheers and disapproval. The outburst reignites tensions following an alleged physical confrontation between Burna Boy and DJ Tunez at Obi's House in Lagos in April.
The DJs Association of Nigeria has since suspended Burna Boy pending investigation into the reported assault. No official findings have been released. DJ Tunez's actions in London have drawn mixed reactions online, with some supporting his stance and others warning of further escalation between the two Afrobeats figures. The incident at Obi's House reportedly involved members of Burna Boy's team. No criminal charges have been confirmed in relation to the Lagos event.
Burna Boy has not issued a public statement on DJ Tunez's recent comments. The singer remains under interim suspension by the DJs Association of Nigeria. DJ Tunez continues to perform internationally and made no further remarks about Burna Boy beyond the viral clip. The video has sparked widespread debate across social media platforms, particularly among fans of both artists. No representatives from either musician have provided additional details.
DJ Tunez calls Burna Boy's music "rubbish" while his own alleged assault case remains unresolved by the DJs Association of Nigeria. The association suspended Burna Boy but has taken no public action on the counter-allegations involving DJ Tunez. This double silence weakens its credibility among Nigerian DJs awaiting fair judgment. Fans are left wondering whose version of events the association truly believes.
