Afrobeats superstar David Adedeji Adeleke Davido has gained significant pressure in his Grammy pursuit thanks to Oprah Winfrey’s recent feature of his song ‘Joy’ on her show.
In her final episode, Oprah used ‘Joy,’ a collaboration with five-time Grammy winner Angelique Kidjo, for both the opening and closing remarks. This exposure sparked widespread discussion and excitement across social media platforms.
Kidjo took to X to share a video of the feature, expressing her heartfelt gratitude and the motivation she experienced from Oprah’s endorsement. Davido joined the conversation by reposting Kidjo’s video, celebrating the recognition and Oprah’s support of ‘Joy.’
This collaboration marks a significant milestone, as it is the first time Davido and Kidjo have worked together. Their partnership follows Kidjo’s contribution to Davido’s Grammy-nominated album ‘Timeless’.
The spotlight from Oprah’s show has both expanded the song’s audience and increased excitement among fans.
They now hope that this exposure could help Davido secure a Grammy Award, solidifying his reputation as a global music icon and expanding his influence in the international music scene.
