Davido stunned fans on Friday, May 6 with the announcement of his highly anticipated first official single for 2022, Stand Strong.
His fans reacted positively to the news, as they had been waiting for new music from the king of Afro-pop.
The 29-year-old father of three gave his 30 billion gang fans an assignment, urging them to leave 100,000 comments on the Instagram post before he releases the song.
Fortunately, as of yesterday, more than 105k comments had been made.
Thankfully, despite the fact that the album’s title and release date have yet to be revealed, fans will get a sneak peek on Friday.
On Tuesday May 10, Davido took to Instagram and Twitter to announce that on Friday May 13, he’ll be releasing his first song of his upcoming album.
“This one is special to me. It’s different. The conception has been different. The mindset has been different. The making has been different. I know you love it when I make you dance, but now I want to make you feel. This one’s for everyone out there holding it up. I know what I’ve experienced the past 10 years, and alot of you have been through it all with me. But… have you really? For the first time I want to bring you into the other part of my world. The part where every day is a battle but I have no option but to STAND STRONG. I present to you, the first single off my next album,” he wrote.
Davido’s fans have been waiting for Stand Strong since the singer mentioned it in May. In the song, he features a multi-faceted vocal group known as The Samples Choir.
