Davido, the Nigerian Afrobeats King, has made a name for himself as one of the genre’s most influential performers in recent years. His newest, “Timeless” album, is his fourth studio album following the commercial success of Omo Baba Olowo (2012), A Good Time (2019), and A Better Time (2020).

Genre: Afrobeats
No. of tracks: 17 songs
Runtime: 50 minutes
Released: 2023
The album which debuted in March 2023, has 17 tracks that illustrate Davido’s versatility as a performer. The album’s first tune, “Over Dem“, establishes the mood with its catchy chorus and contagious tempo. Other outstanding songs on the album include “Na Money“, a high-energy duet with Cavemen and Angelique Kidjo, and “For the Road,“ a love ballad that highlights Davido’s vocal range.
The variety of partnerships David has incorporated into Timeless Album is one of its most noticeable aspects. For example, the song “No Competition” has a collaboration with YBNL recording artist, Asake, while “Unavailable” features South African singer, Musa Keys. “Champion Sound” contains a collaboration with Focalistic, a South African producer. The Nigerian artist Chidozie Godsfavour Ugochinyere aka Fave makes cameos on “Kante“.
Grammy award-winning vocalist, Angélique Kidjo, is featured also on the album’s track “Na money“, which is arguably one of the most thrilling duets ever. Afrobeats and traditional West African rhythms are masterfully blended in this song, which also benefits from Kidjo’s strong vocals.
The album’s “U“, which includes Nigerian-British Rapper Skepta, is another notable hit. The song, which is a celebration of love, has a memorable chorus that will stick in listeners’ brains for days.
The album features Davido’s distinctive style, which combines pop, hip-hop, and R&B components with indigenous Nigerian rhythms. He frequently discusses topics of love, partying, and the difficulties that come with success in his lyrics.
He does, however, also utilize his position to speak out against more serious problems like Nigerian corruption and police brutality.
Ultimately, Davido’s Timeless album is a tribute to his skill as a musician and his capacity to work with musicians of all backgrounds and genres. Fans of Afrobeats and beyond will like the album’s infectious beats, lovely melodies, and moving lyrics.
