He made the claim while reacting to a tweet by fellow producer-turned-singer Pheelz, expressing concern over the toxicity and comparisons in the Nigerian music industry.

Samklef, the popular Nigerian record producer, has accused singer Davido of fuelling toxicity and rivalry within the Nigerian music industry.

He made the claim while reacting to a tweet by fellow producer-turned-singer Pheelz, expressing concern over the toxicity and comparisons in the Nigerian music industry.

“Music was meant to be enjoyed, not to be compared. This comparison game is hurting the sound and culture more than we can ever know,” Pheelz wrote.

Reacting, Samklef claimed that there was mutual respect in the Nigerian music industry when Wizkid and Olamide held sway as the young stars until Davido joined them.

He claimed that with Davido’s entry came toxicity, “cultist mindset,” threats and streaming fraud.

Samklef said that the music industry wasn’t supposed to be competitive or a rivalry ground.

He wrote, “Music was fun when we started. When Wizkid came, there was no comparison—everything was pure love.

“Olamide came too, same thing. No pressure, no hatred, just music.

“Then one Scorpio boy who moves like diddy..Davido entered, and since then the industry turned toxic.

“Cultist mindset, threats, fake streams, dirty moves everywhere.”

His submission sparked mixed reactions, with many berating him for singling Davido for blame for the decadence in the music industry.

Meanwhile, Davido is yet to react to Samklef’s allegations.
