Phori said in a tweet no one owns Amapiano. “No one owns Amapiano. Anyone can do it and win. Good example, look at Uncle Waffles one trending Adiwele video the rest was history. She did it alone and look at Costa Titch his doing it alone and he’s winning. Stop saying I am a gatekeeper.”

LadyRoza jumped in to bring internationally acclaimed superstar, Davido in the mix claiming Davido brought Amapiano from South Africa two years ago and made it a successful genre in Africa and Beyond. “Wizkid is now hopping on the same genre after Davido made it a successful genre.”

“This is how many African artists have been benefiting from Davido’s success for over 12 years,” her tweet read.

Davido and Maphorisa’s exchange:

Kabza & Maphorisa was the first to put Wizkid n Burnaboy on a amapiano song Sponono dat was a historical moment 3 years ago, research before tweet

also it was the first time Wiz n Burna jumped on a same song together
