“I’m Not Considered A Successful Musician Because Of My Wealthy Background” – Davido Laments In An Interview

 

Davido has lamented over the fact that despite all his achievements, he’s still not regarded as a successful musician.

Speaking in an exclusive interview on IONWANNATALK podcast, Davido complained bitterly over how he has helped to put Nigeria on the map because of his talent but he’s still not respected by his kinsmen.

In the course of the interview, he’s reported to have said;

“Not to be cocky but when next is the industry going to see another Davido? Let’s just be honest….A child from where I come from, hustled, suffered.

“I can tell you that I’ve suffered more than a lot of people that don’t have money. And I’ve been able to build what I built. It’s not going to happen in a long time.

“I don’t have the grass to grace story. And for Nigerians to accept you without that is usually very hard.

“That’s why I’m asking you because I know…..I don’t think there’s anything the industry needs because it’s always going to be the same thing. There’s always going to be envy.”

Meanwhile, Davido is the only Nigerian artiste to feature in an official World Cup song, a feat he should be applauded for.
