Nigerian music star, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido has given due credit to his fellow singer Tekno for reviving his career at the moment he needed it most.
According to Davido, he didn’t have any hit song for almost a year until Tekno came along and brought him back to the spot light.
He revealed that his hit song, ‘IF’ was written by Tekno but that Tekno insisted that he wanted Davido to record it.
Davido disclosed this to Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on Bounce Radio program.
Davido stated:
“Till date I am still grateful to Tekno. Tekno brought me back, I didn’t have a hit for almost a year. Tekno wrote the song “IF” and he wanted me to record the song. He wanted me to do it because I am a good guy”.

Days back, a well-known Twitter critic Daniel Regha had berated Tekno for begging to be featured on Davido’s next album.
In a post shared on the microblogging platform Twitter, Tekno said that if Davido fails to feature him in his new album, he should stop talking to him.
Reacting to this, Daniel Regha questioned if Tekno didn’t write the lyrics for him as he did with the hit song ‘IF’.
According to Daniel Regha, writing songs for Davido limits his growth.
He stated that Davido needs to normalise penning his lyrics and writing from the heart because originality is everything, and it matters a lot.
Tekno wrote: Davido if the new album come out and I no dey inside, don’t talk to me again.
Daniel Regha replied, “No it’s not about being on Davido’s upcoming album, hope u didn’t write a song for him like you did with ‘IF’ cos doing so only limits Davido’s growth, he needs to normalise penning his own lyrics and writing from the heart. Originality in music is everything, it matters a lot.
