Nigerian superstar Davido has finally dropped the official music video for his new song “Funds,” featuring Afrobeats heavyweight Odumodublvck and Chike.
Davido has again proven his mastery of blending Afrobeats and highlife with his latest hit single, ‘Funds.’ Featuring the dynamic OdumoduBlvck and soulful Chike, the track is already shaping up to be a staple for the festive ‘Detty December‘ celebrations in 2024.
Produced with vibrant rhythms and rich storytelling, ‘Funds‘ captures Davido’s promise of a love that comes with luxury and unforgettable moments.
Singing in a mix of English and Pidgin, he praises a captivating beauty who has stolen his heart, vowing to shower her with the best life offers.
The track creatively samples Brenda Fassie’s South African classic ‘Vulindlela,’ adding a nostalgic yet refreshing touch. OdumoduBlvck brings his signature lyrical punch to the song, while Chike’s melodious delivery and infusion of Igbo lyrics amplify the Highlife vibe.
Together, they create a seamless collaboration that is both lively and timeless.
The accompanying music video, directed by renowned cinematographer Dammy Twitch, elevates the song’s allure. Set against a backdrop of vibrant aesthetics and featuring stunning visuals, the video showcases Davido, OdumoduBlvck, and Chike in a celebratory mood, promising good times to the stunning women in the storyline.
The visuals also include a special cameo by award-winning actor Gabriel Afolayan, adding a cinematic flair to the production.
‘Funds‘ follows Davido’s chart-topping single ‘Awuke‘ featuring YG Marley, further solidifying his dominance in the music scene. The four-time Grammy nominee recently announced his highly anticipated fifth album, ‘5ive,’ slated for release on March 14, 2025.
As 2024 draws to a close, Davido’s fans can look forward to his headline performance at the Fly Time Festival this December. Earlier in the year, he celebrated a significant milestone with three Grammy nominations at the 66th Grammy Awards, marking yet another chapter in his illustrious career.
