Nigerian singer Ruger ignited a Twitter storm with comments appearing to shade Davido’s recent performance with Angelique Kidjo, which faced criticism for heavy autotune use.
Ruger boasted about not needing autotune, tweeting, “Let’s talk about autotunes on the mic… Ruger don’t need that sh*t.” While not directly mentioning Davido, the timing and context suggest a subtle dig.
Twitter users quickly connected the dots, with some interpreting Ruger’s words as a diss aimed at Davido. The exchange has sparked debate, with some defending Davido’s use of autotune and others praising Ruger’s vocal prowess.
@NuJhayhne: “Na frogido sub be this😭😭. Thank God media casted him few days ago, he no get good voice at all😭”
