In a post shared on his Instagram story, Davido recounted the moment when the producer visited him to express his gratitude. “A certain producer/writer I started working with from Timeless… Finally got his publishing check… came to my house and handed me 20 thousand dollars and said baba thank you,” Davido shared. “Happy to see there are still good people in this world! Being appreciated sure feels good! Love you brother!”
While Davido didn’t mention the producer’s name, several talented producers and writers were involved in the creation of Timeless, which went on to break records and earn Grammy nominations.
In an industry that has often been criticized for not properly compensating producers and songwriters, Davido’s story shines a light on the importance of fair treatment and respect for the people behind the music. It’s a heartwarming reminder that there are still artists who value and support the creative teams that contribute to their success.
The superstar, who has dominated African music for over a decade, continues to be a sought-after collaborator for producers and songwriters alike. With his upcoming fifth album 5ive, set for release on March 15, 2025, Davido is preparing to once again bring together some of the best talents in the industry, further cementing his legacy as one of Nigeria’s greatest musical icons.
Fans can look forward to more chart-topping hits like “Awuke” featuring YG Marley and “Funds” featuring OdumoduBlvck and Chike, as Davido gears up for the next chapter of his remarkable career.
