Davido, YG Marley Trend With ‘Awuke’

Top singer, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido has released his latest single titled “Awuke” featuring the grandson of Bob Marley, YG Marley.

Awuke is a catchy fusion of Afrobeat and Amapiano which topped off with a reggae twist thanks to YG Marley. Following the success of Davido’s album, Timeless, the track proved Davido’s knack for staying on top of the African music scene while bringing something fresh. Not long after its release, Awuke shot to #1 on Apple Music Nigeria, and it’s still riding high in the top 3.

The song is all about love and admiration with Davido’s playful lyrics comparing his muse’s charm to “sweet jollof’; a nod that’s sure to hit home with Nigerian fans. YG Marley’s reggae-infused verse promises a different kind of love, adding a cool contrast to Davido’s vibrant energy.
