Wizkid and Davido have been performing at concerts and festivals all year round with the former headlining the One Africa Music Festivalin New York last weekend, while Davido was mobbed by fans on stage in Windhoek, Namibia.

Davido and Wizkid are shutting down venues globally

Earlier in the year, Wizkid and Davido broke the Internet, as the Starboy sold out the 20,000 iconic O2 Arena, while Davido performed before a crowd of 10,000 in Suriname, South America.

Across a variety of genres, mainly down to pop and Afrobeats, Nigerian music is taking giant steps in becoming the supreme leader of modern music, not just in Africa but globally.

This is 2018 and what seemed unattainable barely a decade ago is happening right before our eyes inspired by the leaders of the new movement, Davido and Wizkid.

Building on very little, Davido and Wizkid have taken significant steps in sealing their legacy globally, inspiring others to dream and opening the doors to a new generation of acts that it can be achieved right from home.
