Davido isn’t the King of Afrobeats, what was said about him, being in the forefront is a lie. Wizkid transcend Afrobeats to the world, breaking barriers and records, paving the way for other African artists. Wizkid is a Legend and a Global Superstar. Wizkid was the first to go international, he’s had more hits, awards,collaborations and Certifications than any African artist. Davido music isn’t more popular in US as Wizkid. Davido fans need to stop overhyping him,he hasn’t don’t a fourth of what Wizkid has achieved. Wizkid was the first to do it. The King is the person who was in the forefront of taking Afrobeats to the world and that’s not Davido. Wizkid is on a different level than he is, one album that is doing well for him doesn’t make him King. Wizkid has always been consistent with his music, better
vocally and musically. Davido need to stop telling people that he is the King of Afrobeats because he’s not. Wizkid a star at h th he time Davido and Burna Boy enter the music industry and he helped them early in their careers.
Please Wizkid has done the most that taking Afrobeats to the world,now other African artists are reaping what Wizkid has sown not Davido. Timeless isn’t a good album, Davido isn’t a good singer, like Wizkid and Burna Boy
Davido ❤❤❤
The king of afrobeats? So what was Fela? I mean, Afrobeat, Afrobets, FELA started it all didn’t he?
The origins of black music around the world started in Africa. African music is very diverse, the most beautiful, inspiring music you'll ever hear. This is true soul music.
King of Afro beat?😂😂😂😂
👑 davido worldwide 🌎
Respect Davido!
However, I wish African Queen was made during this era…. that track was ahead of its time.
I don’t think he is the king of Afrobeats, Fela Anikulapo Kuti is the King. All these guys are princes.
Afrobeats is Afrobeats, no Afrohiphop,is Afrobeats not Afrohiphop
