Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has shared his thoughts on his career trajectory while celebrating a significant accomplishment in his music career after surpassing 11 million monthly listeners on Spotify for the first time.

This achievement follows the release of his fifth studio album, 5ive, which has continued to garner widespread attention.

In a moment of reflection, Davido expressed pride in how far he has come, emphasising that his success was not the result of industry endorsements or influential mentors.

Unlike many of his contemporaries who had early backing from key figures in the music industry, he built his career independently through perseverance and dedication.

Nonetheless, Davido was quick to attribute much of his success to divine grace and the unwavering support of his fans.

He wrote, ?No co-sign, built from the ground up! Just God, good music and the best fans! I Appreciate you guys fr [for real]!

?Who wan even CO-SIGN big man like me?? Hmmm another angle sha.?

5ive, Davido?s April 18, 2025 release, includes 17 tracks and has become a runaway success, amassing millions of streams and sitting comfortably at the top of Afrobeats charts. (Nigerian Tribune)
