Omah Lay Praises Davido as ‘Legend’, Teases Upcoming Collaboration
Nigerian music star Omah Lay has hailed Afrobeats icon Davido as a “legend” ahead of their much-anticipated collaboration. Speaking during an interview with The Baller Alert, Omah Lay expressed excitement about their forthcoming project, describing it as a “perfect song” that aligns with their shared energy.
“We have a song coming out soon, and I’m really excited about it. The way we created the record was so organic, and Davido is such an amazing person,” Omah Lay said, underscoring Davido’s role in elevating Afrobeats on the global stage. “Davido is huge, a legend in this game.”
The collaboration comes after Omah Lay had previously voiced uncertainty over how Davido felt about him. However, their joint effort signifies mutual respect and a strengthened connection between the two stars.
Omah Lay also reflected on the competitive nature of Nigeria’s thriving music industry, emphasising that while competition is fierce, respect among artists remains a priority.
Fans are eagerly awaiting the release of their new track, which will precede Omah Lay’s sophomore album—a project he had to recreate after his original concept was stolen. This collaboration is set to further solidify both artists’ influence on the global music scene.
