Afrobeats star Davido has explained why he would rather his children avoid careers in the entertainment industry, pointing to the pressures of fame and the personal challenges he faced on his rise to global recognition.
Speaking during an interview on The Breakfast Club, the award-winning singer said he prefers a more stable path for his children, suggesting they could build careers within the business empire of his father, Adedeji Adeleke.
Davido said his stance is shaped by his own journey in music, which he described as demanding and, at times, emotionally taxing despite the success that followed. He noted that the entertainment industry often comes with intense scrutiny and uncertainty that many do not see from the outside.
He also reflected on how his father once opposed his decision to pursue music, a period he said affected him deeply but ultimately strengthened his resolve. That experience, he added, now informs how he views the future of his own children.
