Davido Drops Oriadé Tracklist: 13 Tracks of Pure Afrobeats Gold

The wait is almost over. Davido has just unveiled the official tracklist for Oriadé, his highly anticipated sixth studio album set to arrive this Friday, July 31st. This isn’t just another album drop—it’s a full-circle moment marking exactly 15 years since OBO first stepped into the professional music arena. The 13-track project promises to take listeners on a journey through the superstar’s evolution while honoring the raw, authentic sound that first put him on the map.

The album’s title carries deep cultural significance. Oriadé fuses two Yoruba words—”ori” meaning destiny and “adé” meaning crown—to create a powerful statement about fulfilled purpose and claiming one’s rightful place. It’s a fitting concept for an artist who has spent the last decade and a half building an empire that extends far beyond music. The project features an impressive lineup of collaborators spanning continents, including Ghana’s Black Sherif, French-Malian sensation Aya Nakamura, American artist Leon Thomas, and homegrown talents like Mayorkun, Fola, and Llona. Earlier releases “I Know Who I Be” (featuring JAZZWRLD and GL_Ceejay) and “Gimme Dat Ting” (with NO11) have already set the tone for what’s to come.

The complete tracklist reads like a masterclass in contemporary Afrobeats: “On The Road,” “Amazing Grace” featuring Black Sherif, “Julie,” “Constantly,” “I Know Who I Be,” “Gimme Dat Ting,” “B4 B4” with Mayorkun and Fola, “Already Falling,” “Tell Everybody” featuring Leon Thomas, “Yaya” with Aya Nakamura, “Zanzibar,” “Guide,” and closing track “My Light” featuring Llona. With Oriadé, Davido appears ready to remind the world exactly who he is—a crowned king operating in his destined lane.
