Sharon Adeleke, sister of Afrobeats star. David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has claimed that the singer introduced luxury and flamboyant lifestyle into the Nigerian music industry.
She made the claim during the singer’s Apple Radio live takeover with family and friends to celebrate his 15th anniversary in the music industry.
“I think that David is one of the people that started all this being flashy and showing off and making it cool, in Nigeria,” she said.
Davido inferred: “When we came to Nigeria, Mo’Hits did it with like having a crew but you see how in America, every successful musician has a crew, his guys and all that.”
Sharon insisted: “You brought that. Nobody used to do that.”
Davido has repeatedly admitted being inspired by the defunct Mo’Hits, which was led by Don Jazzy and D’banj.
In previous interviews, he shared how he was inspired to do music by the Mo’Hits crew and spending sometime in their mansion when absconded from home after flouting his father’s order not to pursue music.
