#Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Davido is challenging the typical celebrity image by embracing a down-to-earth persona. Unlike many of his peers, he doesn’t subscribe to the stereotypical trappings of fame. During a recent interview on ‘The Breakfast Club’, he shared insights into his approachable character and how it sets him apart in the music industry.
A Refreshing Perspective on Fame
Davido, known for his warm and outgoing nature, revealed, “I love everyone. I don’t see myself as a rebel like Burna Boy or as mysterious as Wizkid. I’m just me.” This straightforward mindset has led some to remark that he’s “too available” for someone of his superstar stature.
When people question his laid-back demeanor, he often replies, “If my dad walked past you right now, you wouldn’t know it. That’s how I grew up.” This sentiment underscores his grounded upbringing, which he credits for his natural affinity with fans.
Balancing Stardom with Authenticity
Although his manager sometimes criticizes him for being excessively casual—even just wearing slippers around the house—Davido finds humor in these situations. “There are people who are born artistes, looking perfect always,” he joked, illustrating his comfort in being himself.
Despite his relaxed attitude, Davido is well aware of the balance required between personal freedom and professional obligations. His genuine approach resonates deeply with fans, offering them a unique glimpse into the real person behind the star persona.
Davido’s authenticity not only endears him to audiences but also sets a new standard for what it means to be a modern-day superstar.
