Throwbacks are peculiar to Thursdays on social media and while we anticipate the 3rd studio album 'A.B.T' of the 'baddest' himself, Davido, we will be reflecting on some defining moments in his life through his songs.

Back When ft Naeto C (Debut Single) 2011

Rich kid, Davido portrayed himself to be 'broque' because, by the 'broke' standards of an average Nigerian, Davido wouldn't make the list in any form. According to him, there was a time he entered a difficult financial phase because his wealthy dad, Mr. Adedeji Adeleke cut him off financially for getting in trouble in college.

That episode however inspired his debut single 'Back When' which featured Naeto C who was the cousin of his manager, Asa Asika.

Breakthrough Era

Dami Duro (Follow up single became a monster hit) 2012

The backlash he received from trying to create a hustler wannabe persona made him restrategize and embrace his true reality of being a rich kid. That rebranding turned things around tremendously for him and his debut follow up single 'Dami Duro’ became a monster hit. "You can't stop me, I'm the son of a wealthy father" is an English translation to "Ema Dami Duro, Emi Omo Baba Olowo".
