In a short space of time, Davido has developed a huge fan base (14 to 28-year-olds) in Nigeria, the US and the UK and the young fresh talent’s first single “Back When” featuring Naeto C, is enjoying massive media attention and airplay online, on radio and TV. In his own words, his greatest reward so far is “having my family and friends support my dream. I can’t ask God for more”. Within no time Davido took us by storm when he released Dami Duro , which has been said to be one of Nigerians top hits ever made. Without a doubt, Dami Duro has become a leading club song as well as one of radios most played.
Without wasting much time, Davido and his management team, in collaboration with Clarence Peters, put together a first-class, never seen before type video, to back up the banger, Dami Duro. Not only did this video create major buzz around websites, TV stations and youtube, but was also said to be one of the best videos out of Nigeria. Without saying much, it is evident that Davido is one to watch out for in 2012! He is evidently here to stay, and deliver.
Davido had a very eventful Christmas (2011) season performing all over Nigeria. He had amazing performances at shows like the Kokoconcert, Rhythm Unplugged, Echo 2011, Access Bank End of year Party and the Sahara End of year concert
The Artiste
Davido admits that his love for entertaining people comes from his late mother who passed away in 2003. Losing his mother has been the most traumatic experience Davido has had to suffer but it has also been his inspiration as he states “...she’s the reason I do what I do.... she loved to entertain and I plan on carrying that legacy...”
With collaborations with artistes likeNaeto C, Shank, Lynxxx and popular UK artiste, Dotstar, Davido is set to prove to the music industry that he has what it takes to succeed. He has also shared stages with people like T-Pain, Fabulous, Keith Sweat, Cabo Snoop, D'Banj, Naeto C and more.
The Producer
As a versatile artiste, Davido is able to adapt to any beat produced by other producers. However, this is a craft he has succeeded in mastering and with help from his brother Ade, HKN Studios would be a force to reckon with in the Nigerian Music scene.
Often asked where his inspiration as a producer comes from, David explains “... I like it when people are happy and when they can dance to my music! My mom liked to dance to music and I am inspired when I think of the kind of beats that would make her dance”
His debut single “Back When” featuring Naeto C is a testament to Davido’s ability and skill as a producer. He has also produced music for ... Naeto C, Skales, Tiwa Savage and Sauce Kid. So, the next time you are dancing to a well made beat, pay attention because you might just hear “on the beat its Davido”... A signature that will be heard on chart-topping songs for a very long time!
The Student
Often considered playful and fun loving, Davido has shown that he is a focused individual and not allowing his music career get in the way of his education. Davido is currently studying Business Administrations in Babcock University and he is applying things he learns in school into running the business of his music career. Ensuring that a proper system and business tools are in place for his music career, Davido hasnot only built a recording studio for the HKN Records, he has also assembled a management and PR team to help him run his affairs while he focuses on his education. Music doesn’t take a back seat though... Davido runs on a very tight schedule to ensure that neither his music nor education suffers!
The Brand
Good talent is hard to go unnoticed. However, more profitable than good talent is a good brand. The Davido brand is increasing growing and commanding attention. The good quality of the debut single “Back When” featuring Naeto C, produced by Davido, is complimented by the quality of the video shot by Award Winning Video Director, Clarence Peters.
The “Back When” video has over 100,000 views on youtube and has had massive airplay on MTV, SoundCity, 1 Music Channel and all Terrestrial TV stations.
Davido is probably one of the busiestof the new artistes in Nigeria as he has performed in some of the biggest shows this year. These shows include
The Music Meets Runway Show
PSquare Invasion Concert
“This is Lynxxx” Campus Tour
Vivendi Fashion Show
Clan by Deola Sagoe
Loud on Sound Concert
Koko Concert London
Elite Model Look 2011 and many others
Rhythm Unplugged,
Echo 2011,
Access Bank End of year Party
The Sahara End of year concert.
With offers already coming his way for more appearances and performances, Davido’s fan base is set to go “off the roof”. Without a doubt, Davido will be vital to selling a few brands in the country.
As an artiste and a producer, Davido is focused on ensuring consistency in the quality of music he gives his fans that are increasing by the minute. Davido’s brand management team is looking forward to developing concepts and working with brands to establish mutually beneficial relationships.
Davido is managed by 21 year-old Asa Asika, who has worked with artists such as Sasha, Naeto C, YQ, GT The Guitarman, Ikechukwu, Pype and many more.
What’s Next?
Davido has been recording with artistes like Dotstar, Lynxxx, Sauce Kid, DJ Skales, Tiwa Savage, Mo’Cheddah, DJ Neptune, FlxeFit, Wizkid, Shank, and much more in preparation for his debut album, which is currently untitled. With the debut single entering countdown charts across the country, Davido is almost always set to release a follow up single to ensure that his fans always have something new to enjoy.

Even though in USA I'm African of east central African
origin. Let us not fight each other on things like which country is better, or plays
the best music. The truth is,
around the World, nobody
gives a damn about Africa.
In other words, they don't
like us; we Africans are the
only people who like ourselves. Point in case, when African artists come
to perform in United States,
they are not shown in any
TV in United States. Black
Americans hate Africans
more than they hate themselves. Africans don't
hate each, like Black Americans do to each other,
Africans, back home or, overseas stick to their own
culture (food, music, movies etc) and that's the best thing
about Africans, that they stay
together to their roots, that they don't go for other peoples glamorous culture
and all that. All these word fights, don't mean anything
other than some individual Africans trying to get attention. It's okay, trying to
get attention but, do so in a
positive way. Allow me to conclude with these facts:
Right now, Tanzania is outstanding in East Africa
but, Nigeria represents Africa
in this mellenium.
