Because of the worldwide popularity of Afrobeats, multinational record companies have opened their doors to Nigerian performers who are bringing the music to international audiences.
Davido is one of Africa’s top musicians contracted to Sony Music UK through its subsidiary RCA. The hitmaker has been on the label’s books for a while now, and he revealed today that he had renewed his deal with them.
Davido confirmed the partnership’s continuation and his ongoing commitment to making timeless music in a May 19, 2023, tweet.
“I’m grateful to officially announce that I have extended my partnership with @sonymusic & @RCARecords, so we can keep bringing you more TIMELESS moments. We don’t stop, Dey for who dey for you,” the tweet reads.
Davido’s fourth album, ‘Timeless,’ was published on March 31, 2023, and shattered many streaming records. The efforts of multinational labels have contributed to Afrobeats’ worldwide popularity, and Davido will be looking to introduce his new album to additional global fans.
