Nigerian music star Davido has opened up about his experiences working with American artists Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj.
According to Davido, both Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj have a deep appreciation for African music and culture.
In a recent interview with Hot 107.9 FM in Atlanta, Davido revealed that Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj often opt for incorporating Afrobeats into their collaborations with him.
He shared that Nicki Minaj specifically requested a full African flavor on their recent collaboration, “If It’s Okay”.
Davido also shared a story about working with Brown on the song “Sensational”. He explained that Chris Brown insisted on incorporating Afrobeats into the track and even asked him to sing in Pidgin.
He said :
“My recent collaboration with Nicki Minaj, ‘If It’s Okay,’ has a lot of Afrobeats influence because she wanted full African flavor on it. These days, foreign artists want to do our musical styles, so it is easier for me to work with them,” he said.
“When we were recording ‘Sensational’ with Chris Brown, I was trying to make it American, but he insisted I include Afrobeats. He asked me to sing in Pidgin. My dancers were the video vixens in ‘Sensational.’ They even went on tour with Chris Brown. Chris Brown loves African culture, and Nicki does too.”

With a soft smile and a glow of admiration, the music star shared that Chioma has been his rock for almost twelve years.

“Shout out to my wife Mrs chioma adeleke , mother of my beautiful twins. she’s been my girl for almost 12 years , I love you and I got you for life,” the singer said blushing
