The singer said that Afrobeats artists are now selling as many tickets as Drake, pointing out that the earnings from a single song can create wealth that lasts for generations.
“Afrobeats Artists are selling the same tickets as Drake. Now one song as an afrobeat artist can change your generation,” he said.
Davido encouraged young artists to collaborate with each other instead of seeking international features, emphasizing that “When you collaborate with your friends, they give it their all.”
