The son of billionaire Nigerian industrialist Deji Adeleke, Davido was actually born in Atlanta, in 1992. The co-owner of label HKN Music with elder brother Adewale Adeleke, he now resides between the U.S. and Nigeria, where he is one of the country’s most recognizable and popular artists. In just a few short years, Davido has collected countless hits, from 2011’s “Dami Duro” to 2013’s “Skelewu” and his recent collaboration with rapper Meek Mill, “Fans Mi”. The Nigerian talent, who recently appeared on the cover of The Fader magazine and was named an artist to watch at this year’s South by Southwest by Rolling Stone, signed to Sony Music in January, so expect more exposure for Davido and HKN Music in 2016.
