December 10, 2024

Nigerian music superstar Davido is ending 2024 on a high note with the release of his latest single, Funds. Blending Afrobeats and Highlife, the song captures a romantic pledge of love and luxury, sung in both English and Pidgin. Davido promises to spare no expense in treating the object of his affection to the finest things in life.

Funds samples the iconic Vulindlela by South African legend Brenda Fassie, adding a nostalgic yet fresh twist. The track features OdumoduBlvck’s signature flow and Chike’s soulful Igbo melodies, amplifying its Highlife vibes. The song is already being hailed as a potential anthem for the 2024 “Detty December” celebrations.

Accompanied by a vibrant music video shot by acclaimed director Dammy Twitch, the visual showcases a lively and colorful party atmosphere. It features appearances by Davido, OdumoduBlvck, Chike, and award-winning actor Gabriel Afolayan.

Funds follows Davido’s recent hit Awuke featuring YG Marley and precedes his highly anticipated fifth album, 5ive, set for release on March 14, 2025. This year has been monumental for Davido, beginning with three Grammy nominations at the 66th Grammy Awards. Fans can also look forward to his headline performance at the Fly Time Festival this December.

With Funds, Davido reinforces his position as a hitmaker, ensuring the year closes with a bang.
