Davido becomes second Nigerian artiste to hit 3M subscribers on YouTube
Nigerian singer, Davido has become the second Nigerian artiste to hit 3 million subscribers on YouTube.
The Daily Page reports that this feat comes months after Ckay became the first Nigerian artist to hit 3 million subscribers on YouTube.
Recently, Davido, in an exclusive interview with Apple’s music that his song is just for fun but to inspire sober reflections.
He said, “We are bringing back original afrobeat music. We had fun making it. I am here to make people smile, dance, and sometimes, reflect. I feel the album has a bit of everything. It is more of bringing back the original Davido. Of course, there will be a couple of features, but (it’s mainly about me).”
Speaking on how he collaborated with American rapper, Kanye West’s gospel group, Sunday Service Choir, on his new song titled, Stand Strong, he said:
“We were in Atlanta (United States of America) when he (Kanye West) was having release parties. From there, I met Jason (who works with Kanye), and we went to the studio, where I played them some of my songs. Apparently,
Stand Strong was the one that ‘fit’ them. We then flew to Los Angeles to shoot the video. I also performed at a couple of shows with them.
It was a different feeling and a different kind of record. I don’t think I have ever released a record like that. Funnily enough, my earlier songs, before afrobeat, were geared towards RnB and soul music.”
David Adeleke, the Afrobeats performer known as Davido, said he is Igbo by blood. The singer shot back at someone who warned him about being friendly with Igbo people, saying he could worry about betrayal as a Yoruba man.
The X user, Yakbel, said: “Davido just dey carry Ibo full body, until when dem betray am before e rest. Yoruba boy dey frolick with Ibos in 2025, they want your head and everything you have to belong to them. You can never satisfy Ibos. Ibos are not people you surround yourself with as a Yoruba man.”
Davido overlooked the criticism and just replied:
“Lol. My ancestors are from the Igbo people.”
Nigerian online streamer, Habeeb Hamzat popularly known as Peller has revealed he convinced his girlfriend, Jarvis, to turn down a ₦3 billion offer from Netflix since it required her to kiss someone during the show.
Peller mentioned this during a livestream with Peter Okoye from P-Square.
Peller said, “Netflix offered 3 billion Naira my girlfriend, Jarvis to do a kissing scene, but I turned it down.”
Peter asked, “Do you mean N3 million or N3 billion?”
Peller replied, “N3 billion! I know you might not believe me, but I have the record of the video call. I warned them never to contemplate such ever again. I love my baby. I don’t joke with my baby. She is my life.”
Peter added, “Always look out for her.”
