Davido, the 'Omo baba olowo, is one artiste
that has got lots of money to throw around.
From having a rich dad to having a successful
career, personal home, fleet of cars and lots
of fans. In a recent
interview with a national daily, speaks about his
music career, competition in the music industry and
his hit song 'skelewu'.
See excerpts of the interview below:
On competition in the music industry?
"I'm not afraid of competition or the fact that some
person will just appear on the scene and take the
shine. After all, I did it to some people, so I expect
that it is something that must happen to everyone
because you can't be shining forever. But once you
are good to others, make good music, have loyal
fans, that's all that matters."
On Wizkid being a threat or music rival?
"Not at all. The rumour is cool. But I see nobody as
competition or threat. God is behind me, so I just go
into the studio, do my music and everything is fine.
I develop and write most of my songs in the studio."
On how much influence his father has had on
his career?
"Yes my father is rich, but the truth is some people
only knew who he was after I released my song,
'Omo Baba Olowo'. I want people to know that the
song was not a hit because of my father but
because it was dope. I didn't sing 'OBO' because of
my father's wealth contrary to what people think.
My father and family always keep me grounded.
They call me from time to time to ask about my
welfare. My father actually visits all these blogs to
read and see all my nonsense. Just like the typical
Yoruba father, he scolds me and whenever he does
that, I will say, 'Daddy cool down, what's going on,
relax.' Although he is also very proud of me, he is
scared and happy for me at the same time."
On Skelewu?
"The song is big already; so whatever we do people
are still going to talk anyway. I shot the video like a
movie and there are three videos, so people can
watch whichever one they want. If you don't like the
instructional video, you can watch Sesan's, if you
don't like that one; you can watch Moe Musa's. If
people want, I will shoot one more video, it's not
easy."
On Future plans?
"I have plans to go into oil and gas business with
my elder brother next year. I want to do music for
10 years. By that time, I will be 30, and free to rest.
Some people are just starting out at 30 but I am
already a success and threat at 20. Fame at a young
age is a plus because I still have like 10 years to
ball while some people are just starting at 27 and 30.
