A few weeks back, American rapper, Nicki Minaj, had revealed why she chose to work with Davido, on the 10th-anniversary special edition of her iconic album, The Pink Print. Nicki said Davido is an incredible writer and melody maker, and added that it is always a great pleasure working with him because of their mutual respect for one another.

Over the years, Davido has proven himself to be one of the greatest of his time. He has had quite several successful albums and shows that pulled in thousands of fans. He has performed in many countries outside Africa, and he often draws mammoth crowds during his performances, which goes to show just how far his influence has gone.

In September, the singer achieved a major milestone in his career, as he made it to the Billboard Honor Roll of 2024 for topping the streaming charts. The singer was the only Nigerian singer to make it to the list, which was quite a big deal for any artist at all.

In April, Davido had bragged as he reflected on his musical journey. In a tweet, he expressed that since he came into the game, nobody has had peace, as he admitted that he loved that effect.

Last year, the Grammy nominee noted how people always come together to discredit him. However, God was working overtime for him. He declared that 2024 was his year as he admonished people to fix their speakers as he was coming.

He had also sent a message to his naysayers and those who underestimated him. The Afrobeat singer told his haters and critics never to play with God as he listed out his wins, noting how people mocked him for not having a Grammy nomination, and now he had it and much more.
