Award-winning singer, David Adeleke better known as Davido has stated that his success in the music industry didn’t come from his father’s wealth.

In an interview on the American podcast ‘Business Untitled’, Davido addressed the misconception about his success being solely linked to his affluent family background.

He emphasized that although his father’s financial status may have presented obstacles initially, it didn’t pave the way for his success.

Davido noted that there were individuals from wealthier backgrounds who tried to make their mark in the entertainment industry but failed to achieve comparable levels of success.

The ‘Unavailable’ crooner also said that skepticism surrounded his early days in the music industry because of his family’s wealth.

Nevertheless, he expressed gratitude for being recognized and accepted primarily based on his talent.
