Afrobeats superstar Davido is building anticipation for his upcoming fifth studio album, 5ive, by releasing snippets of new songs from the project.

With the official release date for 5ive drawing closer, Davido has kicked off an intense promotional campaign, including press tours and exclusive listening parties. The snippets he shared have further fueled the hype, with fans eagerly debating what the full project will sound like.
As one of Africa’s biggest artists, Davido’s decision to feature Becky G suggests a Latin-Afrobeats fusion could be on the album, potentially broadening his global appeal even further.

In his interview with Rolling Stone Africa, Davido opened up about the creative journey behind his highly anticipated fifth studio album, 5ive.
The project came to life earlier this year in the vibrant and relaxed atmosphere of his Malibu home.
For nearly three weeks, Davido turned his residence into a creative hub, hosting producers and engineers who fully immersed themselves in the music-making process.
“We made amazing music, we had parties—some days, we didn’t even record,” he revealed. The energy was magnetic, even drawing in international stars like Chris Brown, adding to the album’s dynamic spirit.
