Nigerian Afrobeats singer David Adeleke, known as Davido, claimed that his most recent album, “Timeless,” was his final opportunity to produce an acceptable record. Davido stated the 17-track album would either make or break him in a recent interview on the +44 podcast.
The singer of “Assurance” expressed his joy at the fans’ fourth acceptance of his record.
He said,
“This is me telling myself the truth; this album was either going to make me or break me. People don’t want to say it to me to my face. But everybody knows the truth about the situation that is happening in their life whether they want to lie to them or not.
“There were situations when I was recording this album I was like ‘mehn! I’m going to go like this, I’m going to go like this?’
“So, when I slept and I woke up, my phone was not with me, so I was going crazy. I sent everybody away an hour before the album came out, I did my prayers, I laid down on my bed, and slept. I now overslept.
“I wanted to just sleep for like one hour thirty minutes so that we will celebrate. I now overslept. Woke up by 3 am. I said ‘Ye!’. I was looking for my phone because I have a big suite. I went to the living room, but there wasn’t anybody in my room celebrating. I was scared like ‘wettin dey happen na?’.
“So, I ran downstairs and I banged my assistant’s door ‘What’s going on, what’s going on?’. He said ‘Oga, take your phone, congratulations’.”
