Davido teams up with legend Angelique Kidjo for new hit ‘Joy’

Afrobeats sensation Davido has once again raised the stakes, revealing his upcoming single titled ‘Joy’. The highly anticipated track is scheduled to drop this Friday, promising to be a powerful anthem that celebrates happiness and resilience. The excitement surrounding the release is amplified by a surprise collaboration with the legendary Angélique Kidjo, known for her Grammy-winning prowess and vibrant African sound.

In a recent interview, Davido opened up about the inspiration behind ‘Joy’, describing it as a song born out of a deep desire to spread positivity and uplift spirits worldwide. “The world needs joy now more than ever,” he said, reflecting on the challenges faced in recent times. Collaborating with Kidjo, he added, was a dream come true, as she embodies everything he wanted the song to represent – strength, culture, and a unifying spirit.

Angélique Kidjo, a global icon in her own right, praised Davido for his vision and creativity. “Working with Davido was a beautiful experience,” Kidjo shared. “His energy and passion are contagious, and together we’ve created something truly special.” The track is expected to blend Davido’s modern Afrobeats with Kidjo’s signature traditional rhythms, creating a unique sound that transcends generations.
