How I Make Hit Songs With My Colleagues – Davido

Award-winning Nigerian singer, David Adeleke, popularly called Davido, has revealed how he makes hit songs with his colleagues.

The ‘OBO’ crooner stated that he is one of the most featured singers in Africa because he puts all he has into any project he is working on.

Davido made this known during a chat with skit maker turned show host, Bukunmi Adeaga-Ilori, popularly known as Kie Kie, Naija News reports.

He said, “I always put in my all. If we do something together, I want the individual to succeed. People just record and feel like they are gods and it should just go itself. Beyonce still promotes her music. Who are you? I just like to give my all if I am working with somebody.

“I don’t think there is a goal for what I am doing. It’s just to keep being successful and helping other people. I am 30 years old and I have been doing this since I was like 16/17 years. I want to sit down and know that even if I haven’t got everything attainable, I have helped someone get everything attainable.”

Speaking further, Davido stated that he has always been an active person since he was a kid, hence his energetic performances on stage.

He added: “I have always had energy since I was young. When I was in school, my teacher used to tell my parents, ‘You guys should stop giving him sugar’. I have always had that energy. This break taught me patience. Even when I am flying on a plane, I will have to stand up every two hours to walk around. The energy is just in-built; it’s just natural.”

The Nigerian singer excited his fans with the release of his new album, Timeless, on Friday, following his absence from social media and public glare since the death of his three-year-old son, Ifeanyi, on 31 October 2022.
