Davido reveals how he signed Mayorkun, shares 1st chat (photos)
Star singer and boss of DMW, Davido has revealed how Mayorkun was signed to his label and the first conversation they had.
Sharing a screenshot, Davido tweeted:
“Me and @IamMayorKun 1st messages to each other !!! I’m type emotional”
Mayorkun, in previous interviews, had also spoken about his conversation with Davido in 2016.
He said:
“On Twitter. I was bored at the office, a bank, one day; just while I was pressing my phone, I impulsively posted a video I had recorded, where I was playing the keyboard of one of Davido’s songs, The Money, on Twitter.
I wasn’t expecting anything. It was on a Friday and I was supposed to resume work in another bank the following Monday. Well, Davido retweeted the video. And he later sent me a direct message asking if I had other things I did besides playing keyboard. I told him I had some songs. I sent like six songs. He liked one of them.
He said if he came back from ATL (Atlanta, Georgia, USA) he will sign me on. He collected my WhatsApp number. Because I was shaking, I typed a wrong number.”
They both teamed up for Davido’s recent hit tract ‘The Best.’
