“I hope I still have the same passion. I’d probably try again… but it depends on my age,” he said.
“If I could tell younger Davido anything, it’d be, ‘It’s going to be a long journey, many ups and downs, smiles and frowns, but you’d get there.’”
Reflecting on his growth and experience in the industry, Davido offered a piece of advice he’s come to value:.
“There’ve been ups and downs, but I’ve learned that hard work and consistency always pay off.”

“Their love is truly priceless and one of the most valuable parts of my journey,” he said.
