“Just being nominated by the Grammys, being recognized alone is enough for me and I’m very proud of myself,” he said in an interview with Rolling Stone.
The video resurfaced following the loss of the Best African Music Performance award to Tems for their collaboration on Sensational at the 67th Grammy Awards.
Despite the disappointment of not winning, Davido’s comments in the video highlight his humility and pride in his accomplishment, regardless of the outcome.
He also shared a heartfelt moment with his father, who reassured him of his greatness.
“My dad is my biggest fan. Before the award show, he told me, ‘Son, no matter what happens, you’re still a legend.’ I always knew Afrobeats was going to go global because when I was in school in America, I used to play it with my friends, and they loved it. I always knew if we were allowed to be heard, we’d go far. All I wanted was to hear my songs play on the radio,” he added.
