Chris Brown was vibing to my song—Davido opens up about life-changing link-up

Afrobeats superstar Davido is reflecting on a key moment in his career. It all began with a FaceTime call.

In a recent interview, Davido shared how he met American singer Chris Brown. A mutual Nigerian friend connected them through the call.

“I got a FaceTime call from one of Chris Brown’s friends,” he said. “While we were on the call, he asked if the song playing was mine.”

What happened next surprised him. “I said yes, and then he tilted the phone. I saw Chris Brown dancing to my song!”

This spontaneous moment created a real connection. They spoke briefly during that first call. Soon after, Davido traveled to the U.S. to meet Chris in person.

“We met up, vibed instantly, and just clicked,” he recalled. Their friendship developed naturally over time.

Since then, their bond has grown stronger. Davido even joined Chris in South Africa for a performance. He described it as an unforgettable experience.

This moment opened new doors for Davido. It also strengthened his presence on the global stage. Sometimes, unexpected FaceTime calls can change everything.
