Davido, Wande Coal Clash Over Unreleased ‘Come My Way’ Collaboration

Davido, Wande Coal Clash Over Unreleased ‘Come My Way’ Collaboration Afrobeats stars Davido and Wande Coal have traded heated words on social media after a disagreement over an unreleased version of Wande Coal’s hit song “Come My Way” escalated into personal jabs The disagreement followed comments Davido made during an appearance on the Uncut podcast, where he discussed his contribution to “Come My Way. Davido said Wande Coal approached him for a verse and that he recorded what he believed was a strong contribution. According to Davido, the disagreement arose over the release strategy: Wande wanted to release the original song first and potentially add Davido’s verse later as a remix. Davido said he was not comfortable with that arrangement because he had recorded his verse for the original collaboration, not as a remix. The version featuring him was subsequently never officially released. Wande Coal rejected Davido’s account, arguing that the song already had a release plan before their disagreement. He questioned why Davido wanted to influence the release strategy of a song that belonged to him and pointed out that “Come My Way” had already performed well without Davido’s contribution. The disagreement soon became personal, with the two musicians exchanging insults on X. Davido referred to Wande as “Mr Little,” while Wande responded with his own personal jab. Davido later shared a screenshot of what he presented as a WhatsApp conversation involving a mutual contact who said Wande Coal wanted his phone number. He appeared to use the screenshot to support his claim that Wande had recently attempted to contact him. However, the exchange does not independently establish what happened during the original disagreement over the song.

The public spat has since generated strong reactions among fans, with supporters of both artistes debating who was responsible for the collaboration failing to materialis The dispute highlights how disagreements over music ownership, collaboration credits and release strategies can escalate between major artistes, particularly when the issues spill into public social-media exchanges.

What began as a disagreement over the unreleased Davido-assisted version of “Come My Way” has developed into a public feud, with both artistes maintaining different accounts of why the collaboration never saw an official release.
