In a recent interview with Omega, Nigerian producer and singer, Davido, disclosed that his billionaire father, Chief Adedeji Adeleke, had constructed the best studio in Nigeria specifically for him.
According to Davido, his fellow artists, including D’banj and Wizkid, used to visit his studio.
Davido explained that during that period, the studio was only accessible every two weeks due to his academic commitments.
Despite this limited availability, many artists would gather at the studio when he returned from school.
Although Davido initially focused on learning sound engineering rather than recording his own music, he would often provide ideas and guidance to other artists who visited the studio.
His friends began to realize his talent and encouraged him to give music a try.
Davido, initially hesitant as he was still in school, eventually agreed. To his surprise, the first song he recorded gained significant popularity.
The artist reflected on the supportive atmosphere of the studio and his role in providing creative input to others.
As his friends recognized his talent, Davido’s confidence in pursuing his own music career grew.
