Controversial artist Speed Darlington has vowed to confront Burna Boy violently if they ever cross paths.
In a recent interview, the self-proclaimed “Akpi King” made it clear that he harbors deep animosity toward the Grammy-winning singer, stating he wouldn’t think twice about physically assaulting him.
Darlington further claimed he wants to challenge Burna Boy in a boxing match after his upcoming bout with fellow musician Carter Efe.
He emphasized that there’s no love lost between them, declaring, “If Burna Boy steps into any space where I am, I’ll attack him on sight.”
The feud escalated after Darlington insinuated Burna Boy engaged in inappropriate dealings with American rapper Diddy to secure his Grammy—a claim that landed him in legal trouble.
Though released on bail, the defamation case remains pending in court.
“Me and Burna Boy have zero connection. If he walks into a room I’m in, I’ll beat him down. After I defeat Carter Efe, Burna Boy better be ready.”😤🔥
