Davido is so confident in his hit catalogue that he is willing to put $1 million on the line to prove it.
The Afrobeats star, whose real name is David Adeleke, challenged his Nigerian colleagues to a hit battle during a recent livestream with streamer Davrel.
I will put $1 million cash on the table. Nobody has more hits than me.
The “Unavailable” hitmaker has built one of the most successful catalogues in Nigerian music, with several songs becoming major hits both locally and internationally.
However, his claim places him in competition with heavyweight artistes such as Wizkid, Burna Boy, Olamide, Tekno, and Runtown.
For now, none of his colleagues has publicly accepted the $1 million challenge.
Davido’s challenge also brings back memories of a similar hit battle proposed by Burna Boy during the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown.
Reekado Banks accepted Burna Boy’s challenge, but the Grammy-winning singer dismissed him as an unworthy opponent.
Davido has now thrown the gauntlet back into the Nigerian music scene, leaving fans to debate who truly has the biggest collection of hits.
