Nigerian singer Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, aka Spyro, has denied claiming he experienced a career setback after collaborating with Davido and Mayorkun.
The singer, who collaborated with Davido and Mayorkun in 2018 on the remix of his song ‘Funke,’ was quoted as having stated in an interview with Hip TV that he believed the collaboration would elevate his career, but instead, he encountered an unexpected setback despite the song’s initial success.
The alleged revelation drew backlash, with fans of Davido criticising Spyro for seemingly blaming the 30BG boss for his misfortunes.
The blog, with the X handle @Naija_PR, had posted photos of Spyro and Davido with the caption: “My career experienced a setback after I featured Davido and Mayourkun – Spyro.”

In the alleged post, the singer stated that despite the song’s initial success, he faced unexpected setbacks, including losing contact.
“I had a song back then, that I had Davido and Mayorkun on it. I actually thought that my life was about to change. The song came out big, and I went back down all of a sudden.
“I sat down and thought about it because how do I go from working with Davido, vibing with Mayorkun and all those guys, and all of a sudden, they no longer even pick your calls anymore.
” I would just sit down on my staircase back then and cry by I had my parents at home that I needed to take care of, and a lot of things were just going wrong”.
Reacting, Spyro dismissed the post, insisting, “This is false!!! I never said anything like this, I give you 24 hours to take this down or be prepared to face the consequences.”
