Singer did not fire his manager, he’s acting a movie

Life for Davido is one endless movie. A story filled with plots and sub-plots, which unfold scene after scene.

From shooting his music video, to hopping on the next flight down to some country for some performance, and Facetiming Young Thug, everything feels like he is shooting for a movie titled ‘Coolest Kid In Africa’.

And why not? Born with a very shiny silver spoon, the star has lived a movie from birth. His University education involved a hot chase across continents, before his father had to step in, whip out the cheque book, and make Babcock an offer that they couldn’t refuse. That’s how he got his first and only degree.

Since 2011 to 2015, that movie saw the young lad become one of the hottest acts in Africa. Song after song, move after move, through collaborations and beefs, he has ascended the throne, faced the bogeyman named Wizkid, fought off bad blood from his cousins, and made enough money on his own to tell the world to eat shit. To this day, the world keeps eating shit.

Fatherhood has come in too, when he gave birth to the cute and bouncy Imade. But his relationship with Imade’s mum – Sophia – is feels like it is off a script on Telemundo.

He won that case too, climbing off his fame, he made Nigeria’s former presidential aspirant, Dele Momodu, his boy, and ridiculed the particulars of that case. He is Davido of course, and when you’re the ‘Coolest Kid In Africa’, things go your way.

Sony Music Entertainment were introduced into the movie in 2016. Now they are playing a big role, after making the star surrender his artistic freedom, for the love of money and the growth of his music business.

All of this movie can be seen from too perspectives. You can decide to follow from a distance, and watch the news, or you can as well go take the front and personal seat by watching his Snapchat stories. Davido loves his Snapchat, and it is on that platform that he shoots this movie.

 It’s 2017, and Snapchat has made a return with some new content. The movie is back, and the roles are changing. Everybody’s, except Davido. This time he’s making promises about releasing singles, while lamenting the ‘international market’ and all the ‘extra’ they put on him.
