23 entertainers to watch out for in 2023

2022 was a good year for Nigerian entertainers, and 2023 promises to be even better. In no particular order, Saturday Beats takes a look at the entertainers that will most likely make things happen this year

Wizkid

Ayodeji Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid has continued to consolidate his prime position in the industry. In November 2022, just days after he released the album, ‘More Love Less Ego’, the singer had a sold-out concert at the Madison Square Garden in New York, United States of America. It also claimed the number two spot on the US World Albums (Billboard) chart; as well as number 15 on the UK RnB albums chart.

The singer again made history in 2022 when he became the first African to headline the Rolling Loud Festival in Toronto, Canada.

Indeed, all eyes will still be on ‘Big Wiz’ in 2023.

Asake

No one saw him coming. Call Asake the rave of the moment and that will amount to belabouring the obvious. The YBNL artiste broke records with his ‘Mr Money With The Vibes’ album. When it was released, it set a new record on Apple music after becoming the African album with the most first-day streams, as well as the most opening three-day streams. The singer also headlined shows outside Nigeria. Sadly two lives were lost after a stampede at his concert at the Brixton O2 Academy, London, United Kingdom. After paying condolences to the victims, the singer has continued to do what he knows how to do best.

Burna Boy

Burna Boy’s vocal dexterity attests to why he is one of the most sought after musicians in the world at the moment. The Grammy Award winner continued to set records in 2022. His sixth studio album, ‘Love, Damini’, set a record as the fastest debut for an African song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Its debut on the UK album chart at number 2 also made history as the highest charting afrobeats album in the UK.

The ‘Last last’ crooner was also one of the winners at the 2022 edition of the MOBO Awards. He carted home the award for the ‘Best International Act’. Last year, he became the first African to sell out the prestigious 20,000-capacity State Farm Arena in Atlanta, USA.

Davido

David Adeleke, aka Davido, is not just talented, he also has a resilient spirit.

He was one of the entertainers who flew Nigeria’s flag at the FIFA World Cup 2022. He performed at the closing ceremony of the tournament in Qatar.

Burna Boy Finally Breaks Silence On His Beef With Davido (See What He Said)

- 1st Jul 2020, 07:26am

Self-acclaimed African Giant, Burna Boy has finally opened up on his beef with DMW Boss, Davido

Recall that fans of Davido attacked Burna Boy over his Snapchat post which was a total shade to the DMW boss Davido.

The post reads.

You cannot play football, everybody knows you cannot play football and you are an embarrassment to the team but your daddy bought the football team.

After many attacks over his Snapchat post, the BET award winner has stayed away from all beef.

 

In a recent interview on Television, Burna Boy was asked if he was cool with Davido even after the beef with him. Reacting to the question, he smiled and said he wouldn’t want to comment on that issue because “people just run with whatever they see, me commenting on it now is going to give it some kind of ammunition” he said.

“It just gives people more armories and more weapons to cooking whatever they want. The truth does not set you free on social media” Burna Boy added.
