List of All Davido’s Songs That He Bought

If there is a list of Nigerian Celebrities in which they are all arranged in their order of relevance, Davido will comfortably sit at the top of the list as he is the most-followed Nigerian celebrity on Instagram, the Richest Nigerian musician, most-followed Nigerian on Twitter, Nigerian Celebrity with the most expensive house, and the list of his achievement goes on.

Despite all these achievements over his other peers in the industry, a good number of Nigerians still think that the DMW boss isn’t talented but just a good businessman. You will wonder why they think so, but the reason isn’t far-fetched as critics have continually slammed him for buying most of his hit songs instead of writing them himself. Songwriting is something that is normalized in other parts of the world, especially in the West but here in Nigeria, an artist who uses songwriters becomes a subject of ridicule.

In this post, will be bringing to you all of Davido’s hit songs that were written by someone else, including the name of the writer, and how it happened.
