Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Davido has confirmed plans for a joint album with American R&B singer Chris Brown, with the project expected to drop next year.
Speaking during a recent episode of the Swift Conversations podcast, Davido disclosed that while his current musical direction leans heavily toward African sounds, he remains open to international collaborations.
“The music I am making now is very African,” he said. “In this next project, I am working with a lot of my original producers from back home. However, I am still an American, so definitely there’s going to be collaborations.”
He then revealed the long-anticipated project: “Me and Chris Brown got an album coming next year.”
The duo’s musical chemistry dates back to their 2019 hit Blow My Mind, which marked the beginning of a series of collaborations. Since then, both artists have teamed up on multiple tracks, building a strong cross-continental fan base.
Hints about a joint album have circulated for years, with Davido first teasing the idea in 2023. He also noted that both artists have a collection of unreleased songs, further fueling anticipation for the upcoming project.
The announcement is expected to excite fans of Afrobeats and R&B alike, as the collaboration promises a fusion of African rhythms with global influences.
