Nigerian superstar Davido discusses the growing global respect for Africans, highlighting the continent’s influence in music, culture, and beyond.
He observed that the worldwide success of genres such as Afrobeats, coupled with Africa’s cuisine and broader culture, has garnered respect for Africans in Western societies.
In a recent interview with Kiss Fresh UK, Davido mentioned, “I spent much of this summer in Europe. Even though I had only two performances, it was primarily a vacation for me. I noticed that the music scene has evolved; when I visited two years ago, Afrobeats dominated playlists for an entire hour straight.”
People are really into Afrobeats these days. Everyone appreciates that sound, even in America. When we plan to collaborate with American artists and aim for their style, they often suggest sticking with Afrobeats instead.
The narrative about Africans has evolved, earning respect across various fields including music, fashion, and food.
