Nigerian singer David ‘Davido’ Adeleke’s manager Asa Asika recently shared more insight on top musicians collaborating.
Just recently, Asa was a guest on the Ventes Rap show when the interviewer asked him about Davido not having music collaborations with Wizkid and Burna Boy.
It is no news that there has been a bit of competitive rivalry between the top three musicians and netizens were eager to hear Asa’s explanation on the reason Davido doesn’t have recent collaborations with his colleagues.

“How come we don’t see Davido featuring Burna Boy or Wizkid?”
In his response, Davido’s manager managed to avoid giving a direct answer to the question and instead danced around the topic of how big musicians have also worked together.
According to him, Davido has a song with Kizz Daniel, Burna Boy and Wizkid have a song, Asake has a song with Davido and more. In his words:
“There have been collaborations, Burna Boy and Wizkid have a song, Davido and Kizz Daniel have a song, Davido and Olamide have a song, Asake is on David’s album, so the big artistes in Nigeria work, they might not collaborate as often but they definitely do. Collaboration is one of the major things that have pushed Afrobeats to where it is.”
Not stopping there, Asa Asika addressed how Latin American musicians collaborate more with each other on songs, unlike Nigerian musicians. According to him, that’s just not the style of Afrobeats.
He said:
“You probably will never get a song that has Davido, Burna Boy, Wizkid, Asake, all on one song, that’s not really Afrobeat’s style.”
