DAVIDO OPENS UP ON WHY HE DOWNSIZED HIS ENTOURAGE


Award-winning Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has revealed why he no longer moves with a large entourage, saying his marriage, family responsibilities, and career priorities have reshaped his lifestyle.

Speaking in an interview with Vibe Magazine, the singer explained that he now prefers to keep a smaller circle around him compared to the early years of his career.

According to Davido, living with his wife and children has made it impractical to accommodate the large gatherings that once surrounded him.

"Now I live with the kids and my wife. I can't have 100 people in my house like before," he said.

The music star, however, clarified that reducing the number of people around him does not mean he has abandoned his longtime friends. He said he has helped many of them become financially independent by supporting their businesses and other ventures.

Davido noted that he encourages those around him to develop skills and pursue meaningful opportunities instead of relying solely on his success.

He explained that he is willing to invest in business ideas presented by people close to him and also rewards anyone who secures business deals on his behalf with a commission.

The singer said his new approach has also influenced his music production, revealing that his upcoming album was recorded in a more focused environment with fewer people in the studio.

Unlike previous recording sessions, which often had a party-like atmosphere, Davido said he now prioritises productivity whenever it is time to work.

He also stressed that respect remains one of the most important qualities he expects from those around him.

According to the Afrobeats star, he does not tolerate disrespectful behaviour, particularly towards women or other people, adding that his upbringing instilled in him the values of respect, generosity, and caring for others.

Davido, who recently concluded a 53-show world tour, said he remains committed to building his legacy while continuing to evolve as an artiste.
