    Afrobeats superstar Davido has revealed an unexpected passion outside music; journalism, thus stunning fans.

    In a recent interview, the Afrobeats maestro spoke on the intensity of promoting his latest album. He then shared that he genuinely enjoys media rounds and having conversations, something many might not expect from someone at his level.

    ‘I’ve been doing crazy promo for my album – not easy. I don’t have to do promo but I like it, I like conversing and all. A lot of people don’t know that, aside from business management, I also studied marketing so I like to talk. If I had a podcast, I’d definitely talk for 3 or 4 days.’

    Davido explained that while not all artists enjoy the spotlight beyond music, for him, it’s an extension of his craft.

    ‘It’s part of being an artiste, to me. I could talk and talk but some people don’t like to talk. When people meet me, I like to have conversations and I’d like to know things. I like information. If you see me at home, I’m always researching something. I watch the news a lot when I wake up, I’d have CNN on the television downstairs.’

    I’m a very informative person, and I feel like if I wasn’t fully doing music, I’d definitely be into something like journalism in a way. I like to let people know what I’m working on and all. Some people ask me why I get the most follows; it’s because I tap in and I’m always working
