Nigerian music sensation Davido has reacted after King Charles III openly expressed admiration for his music and its influence on his appreciation of Pidgin English.
In a recent video, the British monarch shared his deep love for music and its profound impact on emotions. He spoke about how music has the ability to evoke happy memories, provide comfort in difficult times, and transport listeners to different places.
He went on to specifically acknowledge Davido’s music, revealing that it played a role in his growing interest in Pidgin English—a widely spoken informal language in Nigeria. The King expressed his desire to speak Pidgin during his next visit to Nigeria, attributing this interest to the global rise of Afrobeats.
King Charles’ Words:
“Throughout my life, music has meant a great deal to me. It has that remarkable ability to bring happy memories, comfort us in times of sadness, and take us to distant places. Music brings us joy, and this is what I particularly want to share with you.
Davido has made me like Pidgin English. I would like to speak it when next I visit Nigeria. Thanks to Afrobeats, it’s becoming more popular around the world.”
Upon hearing this royal recognition, Davido took to his Instagram story to react. The singer reposted the video featuring the King’s statement and added a heart emoji, showing his gratitude and excitement.
This moment highlights the ever-growing global influence of Afrobeats, as it continues to break cultural barriers and earn recognition from world leaders and notable figures. With King Charles III now a fan, it’s clear that Afrobeats has truly become a worldwide phenomenon.
