Davido Says He Would Charge $500,000 Per Show for Joint Tour With Wizkid

Nigerian Afrobeats star Davido has said he would ask for $500,000 per show if he and fellow musician Wizkid embarked on a joint concert tour.

Speaking on the IONWANNATALK podcast, Davido expressed confidence that their combined appeal would draw large audiences wherever they performed.

“If we tour together, I’ll ask for $500,000 per show because I know every venue will sell out,” he said.

A tour or a new song?

While confident about the potential demand for a tour, Davido said he was less certain that a song featuring both artistes would automatically become a hit.

He pointed to a previous collaboration between Nigerian music stars D’banj and 2Baba, which he felt had not made the impact listeners might have expected.

Reflecting on their relationship

Davido also spoke about the long period in which he and Wizkid have not recorded together, saying they had not always been in the same frame of mind to collaborate.

The singer acknowledged the rivalry that has surrounded the two stars and their fan bases. He said his feelings about their earlier differences had changed and that maturity involves being willing to acknowledge a change of heart.

Davido’s comments concerned a potential tour; no joint dates were announced during the discussion.
