Afrobeats singer David Adeleke, known as Davido, says he may not want to continue performing into his 40s alongside much younger artistes. Speaking on “The Uncut Podcast,” he links the idea to how long artists can remain in the spotlight and the competitive pressure of working with performers in their 20s.
Davido says his comments do not necessarily mean he is retiring immediately, but rather that he could step back for an extended period from recording and performances. Premium Times reports he argues that his existing body of work would allow him to return to the stage if he takes a break. Daily Post Nigeria likewise frames his remarks as a hint of retirement or taking time off, while emphasizing his concern about still “dragging” onstage at 40.
