The news is coming amid heavy criticisms, especially with Davido’s Lyrics.
Twitter critic, Daniel Regha had the collaboration, stating that while the song was already bad, Davido jumping on the remix made it even worse. He further disclosed that Davido ended up doing a bunch of pointless rhymes and even compared a girl’s body to a natural disaster.
He highlighted another awful line that Davido had expressed in the remix of the song, stating that Davido had compared a man’s feelings to a tricycle (kekenapep) and rounded off his critique by stating that he would give the entire song and the remix a paltry 1 out of 10.
Despite his criticism, the song seems to be doing well.

The Afrobeat singer, told his haters and critics never to play with God, as he listed out his wins, noting how people mocked him for not having a Grammy nomination and now he has it and much more.
