Speed Darlington Fires Back at CDQ Over $100 Billion Snub: “Who Is CDQ?”
Drama Unfolds: Speed Darlington Claps Back at CDQ’s $100 Billion Snub
Controversial Nigerian rapper, Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington, is once again in the spotlight after firing back at fellow rapper CDQ, who recently stated during an interview that he would never collaborate with Speed Darlington — not even for a staggering $100 billion.
The drama began when CDQ appeared on the Echoo Room podcast. When asked if there was any artiste in Nigeria he would absolutely not work with, CDQ responded without hesitation:
“Even for $100 billion, I can’t work with Speed Darlington.”
This bold statement quickly went viral across social media, drawing reactions from fans of both artistes. While some viewed CDQ’s statement as harsh, others argued that it was simply a reflection of personal taste and creative direction.
Speed Darlington Responds
As expected, Speed Darlington did not let the comment slide. The self-acclaimed energy god responded in a fiery Instagram Live session. In his usual unapologetic tone, he blasted CDQ and questioned the rapper’s credibility and influence in the industry. Speed said:
"Who is CDQ? I don’t even know him. A person who has never even touched ₦50 million is out here talking about $100 billion."
Speed also mocked CDQ’s music, stating that the rapper is not even on the same level as him in terms of international visibility and online presence. His fans flooded the comment section with support, applauding him for defending himself against what many felt was an unnecessary jab.
The Bigger Picture
This public exchange has once again sparked debate about the state of unity in the Nigerian music industry. While disagreements and rivalries are not new in the entertainment world, this incident has exposed underlying egos and divisions among artistes.
CDQ is known for his unique indigenous rap style and has worked with industry heavyweights such as Wizkid and Olamide. On the other hand, Speed Darlington is famous for his comedic style, eccentric personality, and controversial takes on music and politics.
Their feud may not come as a surprise to fans familiar with both artistes, but the public nature of the exchange has only amplified the drama. Whether this will escalate or simply fade away as another viral moment remains to be seen.
Fans React
Social media has been buzzing since the drama broke. Here are some reactions:
- “CDQ was wrong for saying that. You don’t need to insult another artiste just to make a point.”
- “Speed Darlington is the content king. Always turning nonsense into trending gist.”
- “These rappers need to focus more on music and less on beef.”
Conclusion
While CDQ may have firmly drawn his line in the sand, Speed Darlington's clapback ensures this moment won’t be forgotten anytime soon. One thing is clear: both artistes have drawn attention, and whether good or bad, that’s showbiz.
