Davido has recognized D’banj’s role in globalizing Nigerian music

The pop star made this known during an interview with Apple Music. He admitted to D’Banj’s groundbreaking achievements in globalizing the Nigerian music.

He tipped D’Banj’s 2012 hit single “Oliver Twist” as a catalyst for Nigerian artists’ global success.

Davido revealed that seeing Kanye West in D’Banj’s “Oliver Twist” music video inspired him to focus on African music and embrace his cultural heritage.

Davido stated, “D’Banj was my first vision of a Nigerian artist taking over the world… It was because of ‘Oliver Twist’ that Americans started booking D’Banj, 2Face, P-Square, and other African artists for shows, earning around $1,000,000 per show.”
