These are certainly good times for the Nigerian music industry as David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, Oluwatosin Oluwole Ajibade known as Mr. Eazi and Tiwa Savage recently graced the cover of Billboard magazine.
The top Nigerian celebrities each took to their Instagram pages to celebrate the feat. In the newly released edition of the widely acclaimed magazine, the artistes talked about going international with their music.
The trio reportedly joined Billboard for a video conference to speak candidly about the opportunities African artistes have now, the stereotypes they still face, and how they’re staying true to their culture as they bring a slice of Africa to the rest of the world.
An excited Davido took to his Instagram page to share the good news. He wrote:” I cover magazine!!! @billboard Cover with my sister @tiwasavage and brother @mreazi !!!…
“The forces that unite us are intrinsic and greater than the superimposed influences that keep us apart.” – Africa Must Unite!
