Many assumed the feud between Burna Boy and Speed Darlington would settle down once Darlington, also known as Akpi, was released from prison. However, it seems we were mistaken. Since his release, Akpi has been stirring the pot online, attempting to provoke Burna Boy through various posts and actions.
Recently, Speed Darlington released a diss track titled “Baby Oil,” which quickly became popular on Spotify. The track, believed by many to target Burna Boy, was accompanied by Speed Darlington’s video, which has only fueled the tension further.
While Burna Boy has been in the US, Akpi warned him to tread carefully, as he claimed the territory was his own. Speed Darlington’s video has sparked a lot of conversation on social media, with many fans feeling that the rapper is crossing a line and should refrain from attacking a fellow artist. The responses to Speed Darlington’s video continue to pour in, with some seeing it as pure provocation while others view it as artistic expression.

Meanwhile, Skales recently weighed in on Speed Darlington’s diss track, “Baby Oil,” released after Burna Boy helped secure his release from police custody.
In a post on X, Skales called the diss track a “hit” and mentioned that it reminded him of Tupac’s iconic “Hit Em Up.” This statement drew attention due to the rocky relationship between Speed Darlington and Burna Boy, marked by previous incidents. Speed Darlington had accused Burna Boy of being involved with American rapper Sean Combs, also known as P. Diddy, and questioned how many bottles of baby oil P. Diddy might have used on him.
Following Speed Darlington’s controversial diss track, Burna Boy filed a police report, leading to Darlington’s arrest. After his release, he apologized, though the incident left fans divided. Many supporters of Burna Boy saw Skales’ praise of the diss track as an attempt to provoke Burna Boy, viewing it as disrespectful given Burna Boy’s positive impact on Skales’ career.
