Singer Davido Advises Aspiring Musicians

Afrobeats singer Davido has dished out inspiring advice to young and up-and-coming about being original in their artistic pursuits.

To jog his memory, Davido recalled how he moved to Nigeria from the United States to pursue music fully and do something different but still ride on the wings of his originality.

Davido noted that the uniqueness of the sound he came to Nigeria to develop eventually took him back to the United States as a superstar.

He urged up-and-coming artists to always make sure they stand out creatively.

In a video message shared via his X (formerly Twitter) handle on Friday, Davido said: “If I could give advice to aspiring musicians, just be original.

“I used to live in America. I could have stayed just doing what everybody else was doing. My calling was to go back home and represent the culture and eventually, it still brought me back out here. But everybody else has their own path. The most important thing is to be original.”
