Singer Davido Discloses He Almost Quit Music Before Hit Collaboration With Colleague Omah Lay

Afrobeats singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido has disclosed that he was on the verge of leaving the music scene shortly before the release of his chart-topping song “With You” featuring fellow singer, Omah Lay.

In a now viral interview, the multiple award-winning artist confessed that he never expected the track to become the standout hit of his latest album.

According to him, the song’s massive success reignited his passion for music when he was contemplating stepping back after more than a decade in the industry.

Reflecting on his journey, Davido noted how rare it is for an artist to enjoy such a breakthrough this far into their career.

He described the timing of the hit as divine, emphasising that it came just when he was preparing to slow down.

“Some artists get that kind of song at the start of their careers, others in the middle. For me, 13–14 years in, I was even thinking of bowing out. Then God blessed me with this song. It added more life to my journey,” he said.

Singer Skales Opens Up On His Humble Beginnings As He Reveals That He Used To Live In A Hut

Nigerian singer, Skales has opened up about his humble beginnings without hesitation as he revealed that he and his late mum used to live in a 'simple hut' back then in Kaduna state. 

He said in his words: "I’ve been through a lot. I come from Kaduna from a poor family. My mum was a teacher. I used to live in a hut before we moved to a BQ. We would sleep on mats on the floor, and my mom would put a wrapper down for us. Coming from that situation to where I am now is crazy. Sometimes I just look at it and think, ‘that’s insane.’ I never saw a TV until EME signed me. Having my own TV in my room for the first time was a big deal.”

Comedian DeeOne Claims Singer Olu Maintain Gave Nigeria A Bad Name

Reality TV star cum comedian, Aderombi Adedayo, better known as DeeOne, has revealed how singer Olu Maintain gave Nigeria a bad name.

“Do you know that Olu Maintain, great artiste. I love his work but do you know that Olu Maintain is among the people that put this country in a bad light, gave us a bad name?

“Many years ago in Nigeria, Yahoo Yahoo – 419 was something that everybody that was involved in it was ashamed. They could not come out to say I’m a 419. Na you go dey tell person say this guy ee be like say na 419. It was a shameful thing even though they were making a lot of money. And then, Olu Maintain came with that hit (song) ‘Yahoo’.

“The whole country started celebrating to the extent that, that thing had a dance. We did not understand the effects. Young boys then, babies at that time were inspired, listening to the song, enjoying the vibe. So, Yahoo Yahoo now became an accepted profession in Nigeria. And you know that Nigeria has the largest population of black people. Now, it has spread all over the globe.

“If we are complaining about this country now, Olu Maintain will talk and said oh is the government but he contributed to one of the suffering that we are facing today. Today now, if you travel out of Nigeria they will look at you and say oh these people that are into fraud.”

Singer Mr Eazi Reveals How He Lost N19m In Diesel Investment At 19

Nigerian singer and entrepreneur, Oluwatosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi, has revealed how a business misstep in his teenage years cost him millions of naira and almost crushed his entrepreneurial drive.

Speaking in a recent podcast interview shared on X, the ‘Legalize’ crooner recalled losing about N19 million in a collapsed diesel supply deal when he was 19.

He explained that he had borrowed money from his uncle, a medical doctor, and his wife in Nigeria to finance the venture, which at the time seemed like a secure investment.

According to him, the plan was to purchase diesel and supply it to clients, including telecom giant MTN.

Mr Eazi stated that like many young entrepreneurs then, he relied on agents at Lagos’ Apapa port to source the product, since direct access to tank farms required bulk allocations.

However, he recounted that trouble began when the government unexpectedly deregulated fuel prices, a move that caused diesel prices to crash, leaving him and his partners with stock that quickly lost value.

While the loss was devastating, Mr Eazi said the setback turned out to be a defining lesson, describing it as the experience that shaped his resilience and sharpened his mindset for future ventures.

“It was a painful failure, but it toughened me up for the journey ahead,” he added.

The singer, who has since built a career as both a global Afrobeats sensation and a successful investor, said the episode remains a reminder of how failure can become the foundation for lasting success.
