Davido just gave Afrobeats fans a major teaser ahead of his upcoming album Oriade, and the buzz is already deafening. During a recent Twitch live session, the superstar unveiled three of the guest artists joining him on what’s shaping up to be one of the year’s most anticipated projects—and the lineup is fire.
The OBO confirmed that his former DMW protégé Mayorkun will be making an appearance, marking yet another collaboration between the two hitmakers whose musical chemistry has consistently delivered bangers. Joining him are two of Nigeria’s most exciting rising talents: Llona and FOLA. It’s a strategic blend that showcases Davido’s signature move—bridging the gap between established stars and fresh voices pushing the culture forward. The trio represents just a fraction of what’s coming on Oriade, but it’s enough to have fans counting down the days until the full tracklist drops.
Set to arrive July 31, Oriade marks Davido’s sixth studio album and follows the success of 5ive. According to the artist himself, this project digs deep into themes of identity, destiny, and legacy—a fitting direction as he celebrates 15 years of dominating the Afrobeats scene. With the full guest list still under wraps, the confirmed features have only amplified the excitement surrounding what could be Davido’s most personal and culturally significant body of work yet.
