According to him,
“He’s been going on stage with 100 people since the beginning, and he still does it today. His energy and voice remain the same.”
He went further to highlight Davido’s newly released album, Five, noting that OBO remains steady despite the industry's changes.
However, he didn’t spare Wizkid and Burna Boy. The comedian mocked Wizkid’s inability to match his old performance vibe, saying,
“Before, he used to whine waist, now it’s just singlet and singing.”
As for Burna Boy, he said,
“He calls himself African Giant, but he’s still a boy. Even the name change he’s been trying hasn’t stuck.”
The roast sparked loud laughter from the crowd.
