Rising Nigerian artist, Boluwatife “Champz” Balogun, has ignited intense online conversations after releasing a two-minute diss track aimed at popular social media critic Daniel Regha.
The track followed Regha’s harsh review of Champz’s debut EP, Champion’s Arrival, which he described as one of the weakest projects he had heard.
The criticism quickly gained traction, placing the young artist under a harsh spotlight. However, rather than staying silent, Champz responded with a buzz-generating freestyle that directly addressed Regha’s comments.
In the track, he rejected the “Nepo Baby” label often attached to him due to his association with Dad, Wizkid. He mocked what he described as Regha’s shifting stance, referencing a rescinded or altered headline, suggesting it made a U-turn. The confident delivery and pointed lyrics struck a chord with listeners.
Almost immediately, the diss track attracted thousands of likes, reposts, and supportive comments across social media. Fans praised Champz for confronting criticism head-on instead of shying away. Many described the response as bold, calculated, and fitting for a new-generation act navigating public scrutiny.
The phrase “Starboy pride” began trending among supporters who saw the moment as a defense of the wider Wizkid camp. However, Daniel Regha appeared unfazed by the musical jab. He responded online, downplaying the diss and claiming Champz read his lines from a phone.
Regha maintained his original stance on Champion’s Arrival, insisting his critique stood regardless of the response. His reaction further fueled debate, with fans choosing sides and dissecting every detail of the exchange.
Beyond the diss itself, the freestyle carried a reflective ending. Champz closed the video with a caption thanking fans for their support throughout 2025. He also promised to return stronger, hinting at bigger moves and heavier releases in 2026.
This moment continues to dominate timelines, showing how emerging artists can quickly flip controversy into momentum. As fans celebrate the clap back, attention now turns to whether Champz will deliver on his promise in the coming year. What do you think?
