David Adeleke aka Davido, has
revealed how his father once arrested him because of his decision to go into
music career.
He said his father was initially
not in support of his decision to do music.
Davido, born in Atlanta, US, told
newsmen in an interview that his father was not impressed when he left the US
where he was studying Engineering to return to Lagos to pursue a career in
music.
“My dad didn’t like me doing
music! If he saw my face on a billboard, he’d arrest everybody at that show!
“But when I made the song ‘Dami
Duro’ [2011], it became the biggest track in Africa; it’s saying: ‘I’m the son
of a rich man, you can’t stop me, and people love me.’
“It now feels good for dad to see
that music can take me this far.
“It’s the internet and social
media.
“I’m telling you, Nigerian people
have a supportive force, and an amazing energy. Beyoncé and Kanye felt it on
their visits, but Nigeria has always been very big on entertainment; when I was
little, a big artist would come over to play every Christmas.
“Now the music industry in
Nigeria is like a government ministry; it’s worth billions. There are so many
artists in Nigeria that you might not have heard of, but trust me, they’re
doing well.”
