In light of this, the interviewer asked Reekado Banks how he felt about the insults he received from Big Wiz. In response, the 31-year-old disclosed that it wasn't a nice experience. He added that he didn't want to put out the song at that time initially, but was persuaded by his management.
In his words:
"Not the nicest, especially considering I didn't want to put the music out. I had urged my management at the time not to put it out, but they were convinced that it wasn't a problem... It was so bad at the time. I was able to move on from it."

When asked if he regrets releasing the song at that time, Reekado gave his honest take, noting that following that incident, he has learned to stand more firmly on his decision.
"Absolutely. So there is not much that I am convinced to do these days that I do not do," he asserted.
The podcaster asked Reekado Banks if he had had the opportunity to explain things to Wizkid, letting him know how the issue played out. In response, Reekado noted that Big Wiz recently visited his restaurant and they had a little discussion.
He noted that Wizkid regrets coming at him in such a manner. Reekado also revealed that Wizkid expressed remorse for tackling Don Jazzy online, referring to the incident some months ago when he called the music boss an influencer.
He said:
"Recently, he came visiting my restaurant. We had a little talk, and he was a little regretful about it. He was like he shouldn't have gone that route. He mentioned his behaviour towards Don Jazzy as well, and he was like we are three people in the game that have only recently lost our moms. He feels sorry about the time and it's good now."
