Nigerian Music Would Be Boring Without Me, Says Davido
Davido is causing a stir online once again.
The Afrobeats star claims the Nigerian music industry would be boring without him, a statement that has sparked mixed reactions from fans.
He has long viewed himself as a central figure in the industry.
In 2022, following the tragic death of his son, he took a three-month break from social media.
During that period, both fans and critics were eager for his return, highlighting the influence he commands.
Davido first rose to fame in 2011 with his hit song “Dami Duro.”
While other young stars such as Wizkid were also emerging at the time, Davido quickly established himself as one of the defining voices of Afrobeats, shaping the genre’s sound and style.
However, not everyone shares his perspective.
Veteran producer Samkleff said that Davido’s rise brought rivalry and tension among artistes, a contrast to earlier times when collaboration and respect were more common.
Regardless of differing opinions, Davido’s impact on Nigerian music is undeniable.
Every release and social media post keeps fans talking and the spotlight on him.
