Davido has revealed that one of his daughters is already showing signs of following in his footsteps, but he is not rushing to encourage her music ambitions.
The Nigerian superstar said his second daughter, Hailey Veronica Adeleke, loves music, has a good voice and carries the same lively personality that helped shape his own career.
Despite her talent, Davido admitted he feels uneasy about seeing any of his children enter the music industry because he knows how demanding the journey can be.
While speaking on The Vibe podcast, the father of six explained that his own experiences have made him think twice about encouraging his children to pursue music.
I do not want any of my children to pursue music. My second daughter [Hailey] is already leaning towards music. She is the life of the party. She behaves just like me. She actually has a good voice.
Davido said his concern comes from the challenges he faced while building his career.
He questioned whether his children could handle the same pressure after witnessing everything he endured on his path to success.
But I know what I went through. Can you go through what I go through? Knowing what I have been through, I am skeptical about encouraging any of my children to do music.
Even so, the Afrobeats star made it clear that he will not stand in the way if any of his children decide to chase their dreams.
Davido said his parents eventually gave him the freedom to pursue music despite their initial reservations, and he wants to extend that same support to his own children.
But because my parents and my family eventually allowed me chase my dreams, I would never want to block any of my children from chasing their dreams. And if they are good, why not?
The latest remarks build on comments Davido made earlier this year, when he said he would rather see his children pursue careers in the businesses owned by his father, billionaire businessman Adedeji Tajudeen Adeleke.
He explained at the time that he believed those opportunities would offer them a more stable and comfortable future than the unpredictable world of music.
