Nigerian singer and DMW boss Davido is one who needs little or no introduction in the music industry. The O.B.O crooner, made news yesterday after he took to his IG page to call out a music video director who said into his DM to beg the singer for a job.
Not one to forget, Davido slammed the music director reminding him of a time he once referred to him as talent-less.
Despite not living up to his glory in 2016 with his Son Of Mercy EP, Davido came back strong in 2017 dropping four major hit songs; “If”, “Fia”, “Fall” and “Like Dat”, to the delight of his fans.
The singer who hit the limelight back in 2011 with his single Dami Duro has since then continued to drop hit songs and yes, today we will be talking about 3 of his songs we just love.
