God blessed me with this song- Davido speaks on hit song with Omah lay
In a recent viral interview, Afrobeats icon Davido disclosed a near-exit from the music scene, which was averted by the surprise success of his hit single, “With You,” featuring Omah Lay.
The artist confessed he had been contemplating stepping away after over ten years in the business and never expected the song to become the standout track of his latest album, crediting its massive popularity with reigniting his love for music.
Reflecting on his journey, Davido noted how rare it is for an artist to enjoy such a breakthrough this far into their career.He described the timing of the hit as divine, emphasising that it came just when he was preparing to slow down.
“Some artists get that kind of song at the start of their careers, others in the middle. For me, 13–14 years in, I was even thinking of bowing out. Then God blessed me with this song. It added more life to my journey,” he said.
