The fourth studio album from the Afrobeats star will be released on March 31. The trailer depicts the African superstar in a TV interview while fans wait. After a five-month public break, it will be Davido’s first acoustic album and his first since 2020’s A Better Time.
The clip, which was shared on Spotify’s social media platforms, features Davido responding to inquiries about his latest album and summarizing it in one word: timeless. A teleprompter nearby plays the eagerly awaited tracklist and album collaborations.
Timeless is “a full work that transcends fads and trends,” according to Davido’s team. Davido has delighted fans all over the world with his music, and this work is honest and true to who he is at his heart as an artist. Today, you listen. The song that comes in will still be significant tomorrow, therefore it will last forever. There will be 17 songs on the album, including Champion Sound, which Focalistic and Amapiano ambassador Champion Sound previously published.
It also lives up to Davido’s decades-long reputation as a liaison and collaborator between Afrobeats and world music, with a roster of well-known foreign performers as well as up-and-coming local artists. They include Grammy winner Angelique Kidjo, dancehall king Dexta Daps, and British grime legend Skepta. They also include the Nigerian hit Asake.
Davido also utilizes the album to showcase up-and-coming artists like the fascinating Nigerian folk band The Cavemen, the digital content maker Morravey, and the singers Logos olori and Fave from Nigeria. Timeless Afro, a collection of the greatest classic Afrobeat songs put together by Davido, is a Spotify-only stream that comes after the teaser.
These actions help the musician re-enter the public eye and are consistent with Spotify’s long-standing commitment to assisting African music and its producers. Victor Okpala, West African Artist and Label Partnerships Manager at Spotify, commented on the trailer by saying that its release is one of the greatest representations of African music in the modern era.
