He stated:

"Because my voice is already husky, when my voice goes, it’s so annoying. I like to express myself, and I speak a lot, so when I can’t talk, it’s annoying. It’s so uncomfortable when I have a show and my voice is not back, and I’m impatient, so I’ll just be coughing."

In an exclusive interview with Native Now by The Native platform and monitored by R, Davido stated that he had gone through a lot of hard times and difficult moments in life, but his new album, ‘Timeless’ was all he needed to get back on track and start making sense of his career once again.

Speaking about the Timeless concert that took place in Lagos, he said:

"You have to be really, really loved for people to come to TBS—on a rainy day again. I wasn’t worried about people coming out; I was more worried about delivering the production that we had worked so hard. We just wanted everything to go right; that’s really what I was banking on. I would say about 70 percent of what we planned went right, and that’s really good for Nigeria."
