Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has revealed that he would demand $500,000 per show for a joint tour with fellow singer Wizkid, expressing confidence that the tour would sell out venues worldwide.
Davido made the revelation during an appearance on the IONWANNATALK show, where he discussed the possibility of recording music and touring with his longtime colleague.
However, the singer expressed uncertainty about whether a joint song with Wizkid would become a hit, citing the collaboration between D’banj and 2Baba as an example.
“If Wizkid and I do a song together, I don’t know if it will pop because when D’banj and 2Baba did a record together, it didn’t really pop,” he said.
Davido was more confident about the prospect of touring together, saying, “If we tour together, I’ll ask for $500,000 per show because I know every venue will sell out.”
The singer also disclosed that he and Wizkid had not recorded a song together in about 10 years, clarifying that their failure to collaborate was not because they were incapable of working together.
He explained that they had not been in the same mental space, adding that people held different opinions about whether their rivalry had contributed to their individual success or whether a collaboration would further boost their careers.
Davido also spoke about moving past disagreements, saying it takes maturity for someone to acknowledge when their feelings have changed.
“I felt that way at some point but not anymore, and it takes a great man to do that,” he said.
