Popular Nigerian singer, David Adeleke professionally known as Davido has revealed that he has started to charge artistes seeking for his collaboration on their songs.
Speaking in an interview on the Bootleg Kev show Davido said his lawyers have drawn up contracts in tune to his revelation.
The Unavailable hitmaker stated that he now charges $100k (N46M) plus a video when it comes to being featured by artistes that he knows. He insinuated that it could be more if the collaboration request is from someone who he isn’t familiar with.
As expected the video generated several reactions among netizens, while some hailed Davido for the latest decision claiming that free access to him will be reduced as he won’t be taken for granted, others noted that he is supposed to charge higher than that based on his level and impact in the music industry.
