Davido Net Worth & Biography 2021 – Adeleke David better known by his stage name “Davido” a.k.a OBO is a Nigerian singer and songwriter from the corridors of opulence and financial splendour.
Quite different from the others in the industry with a common hustle story and subsequently, thankGod-i-made-it grace story so you can have the famous “Grass to Grace” bio.
He knew no grasses from the onset, he was birthed into affluence and plenty but that didn’t grant him a license to be lazy.
If he hadn’t worked off his guts like that of a pauper, perhaps he’ll just be that average billionaire kid and that’s just about it, no fame, awards and all the perks that comes along with being active in showbiz.
He would not allow his croak voice hamper him from doing what he loves best which is music, so it didn’t matter if he wasn’t going to win “most incredible voice of the month” anytime in sight, he was doing music and that’s it, hoarse voice or not.
That snubbing of his vocal limitations rose him to higher platforms in the music industry.
He does fine music, fantastic voicing and splendid beats.
The “Banana fall on you” crooner has probably lost count of his awards and nominations from giving out amazing singles to the delight of music lovers and revellers in not just Nigeria but continentally.
Davido is well famous for about the way he flaunts his wealth and that’s presumably the inspiration behind the “30billiion in my account ” mantra, that might have been a little bit extreme for wealth brandishing but no it didn’t, a concert is christened after the megabucks, the “30billion concert” which actually serves as food for critics, but the rich kid doesn’t give a hoot so let’s delve into a brief but explicit history of his personality we’ve scraped out for you.
