Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has revealed that he was close to quitting music shortly before the release of his chart-topping single “With You” featuring Omah Lay.
In a now-viral interview, the multiple award-winning artist admitted that he never expected the track to become the standout hit of his latest album.
According to him, the song’s success reignited his passion for music at a time when he was contemplating stepping back after more than a decade in the industry.
Reflecting on his career, Davido noted how rare it is for an artiste to experience such a breakthrough this far in their journey.
“Some artists get that kind of song at the start of their careers, others in the middle.”
“For me, 13–14 years in, I was even thinking of bowing out.”
“Then God blessed me with this song. It added more life to my journey,” he said.
