Afrobeats superstar Davido has once again stirred conversation online after clapping back at a troll on social media who mocked him for being born into wealth.
The troll, clearly annoyed by the singer’s luxurious lifestyle and privileged upbringing, took to X (formerly Twitter) to claim that if Davido hadn’t come from a rich family, they would both be on the same level in life.
The user, identified as @thisisdm01, posted: “if no be silver spoon wey them born you with, two of us suppose dey same level by now.”
Davido, never one to shy away from online criticism, spotted the post and delivered a sharp response. In a now-viral reply, the artist suggested that the issue wasn’t his privilege, but rather the circumstances surrounding the troll’s birth.
He responded: “Nah ur mama go knack wrong person no be my problem bro.”
The blunt reaction quickly attracted attention and sparked mixed reactions from fans and followers. While some found Davido’s response harsh but humorous, others debated the role of privilege and hard work in his success.
As one of Nigeria’s most successful artists and a known heir to the Adeleke fortune, Davido has often faced comments questioning his rise to fame and how much of it was influenced by his background. However, he has consistently maintained that, regardless of his upbringing, his achievements are a result of talent, effort, and consistency.
