We are pleased to commemorate Davido’s 15 significant years in the music business today. His career has been characterized by skill, resiliency, tenacity, cultural influence, and an unrelenting dedication to greatness.

From the release of his breakthrough albums to his rise to prominence as one of Africa’s most well-known international music heroes, Davido continuously transformed the sound and appeal of Afrobeats on a global scale. Over time, his music broke down barriers, brought disparate audiences together, and inspired a new generation of artists worldwide.

As we commemorate this 15-year milestone, we sincerely recognize the unwavering support from fans, partners, industry stakeholders, media outlets, and the entire global community that has shared in this amazing journey.

Your constant support, loyalty, and faith have greatly contributed to the legacy being celebrated today.

Davido’s biggest strength is still his genuineness, hard ethic, and strong interpersonal connections, even in the face of numerous accolades, chart success, sold-out arenas, and other accomplishments. Beyond just music, he has an impact on entertainment, culture, youth empowerment, and how the world views African artists.

The goal is still the same fifteen years later: to produce timeless music, inspire millions of people, and proudly export African music to every country in the globe.

LONG LIVE DAVIDO.

David Adeleke, better known by his stage name Davido, is a Nigerian singer who has declared an indefinite hiatus from music.

The OBO crooner stressed that he is on sabbatical and warned his fans not to expect new songs from him anytime soon during a recent livestream with Davrel.

Davido claimed that since his songs are now ruling club playlists, he doesn’t need to make new music to stay relevant in the music industry.

“Stop asking me when I’ll be releasing new music. I’m taking a musical hiatus. Ten of the twenty songs in the club right now are mine, as I mentioned. “I’m taking a musical break,” he declared.

Davido also made a statement about the emerging celebrity boxing competition in Nigeria, calling it a positive development.

The celebrity boxing contest has truly impressed me. It’s a positive development,” he said.

According to the DAILY POST, controversial artist Portable was just overthrown as the current champion of a Nigerian celebrity boxing event by well-known streamer Cater Efe.

Following his loss, Portable said that many people in the music business didn’t like him and accused them of being unsupportive.

Afrobeats superstar, Davido, has revealed that he does not want any of his children to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.

Speaking during the interview, he said:

“I would prefer my kids to work with my dad instead of doing entertainment. Every Christmas, my dad takes all the grandkids with him. And I could just see that upon all the things he has, including multiple private jets and all that, his happiness is him seeing his grandchildren. And my father is single.

So I just saw his happiness and I’m like this is what life is all about. My dad not wanting me in the entertainment really killed my joy until he saw that this boy is really adamant about doing this. I wouldn’t want to do that to my kids as well.”

Davido explained that his decision is influenced by his personal struggles in the entertainment industry before his breakthrough, noting that he would prefer his children to work in his father, Adedeji Adeleke’s companies instead.

According to him, while he eventually followed his passion despite initial resistance from his father, he hopes to guide his children toward careers that offer more stability and less pressure.

The superstar, known for his deep love for his children, has once again shown his concern for their future and career choices.

Afrobeats singer Davido, whose real name is David Adeleke, has reacted angrily to a viral video showing a brutal bullying incident involving students of Igbinedion Secondary School in Edo State.

The singer reacted on X on Sunday, condemning the behavior in strong terms. “Fuckin animals… so disgusting,” he wrote in response to the footage circulating online.

The video shows two male students repeatedly assaulting a fellow student who had fallen to the ground.

At one point, one of the attackers drags the victim by his school uniform and stomps on his chest and head while the boy cries out in pain.

A third student, recording the incident, can be heard begging them to stop.

The disturbing footage quickly sparked widespread outrage on social media, prompting immediate action from the school authorities.

In response to this, the school in question expelled the students involved in the bullying while suspending the student who did the recording.

In addition, in a statement, the Edo State Police Command confirmed that the students involved have been expelled, while the student who recorded the incident has been suspended.

Police spokesperson Eno Ikioyedem said the Commissioner of Police, Monday Agbonika, has directed the Divisional Police Officer in the area to carry out a full investigation.

“The Edo State Police Command strongly condemns acts of bullying, violence, or intimidation among students, and anyone found culpable will face the full weight of the law,” the statement added.
