Davido is ready to expand his musical kingdom. The Afrobeats titan has just dropped the official tracklist for Oriade, his sixth studio album, and the 13-track lineup is packed with both solo showcases and heavyweight collaborations that span continents and genres.
Set to arrive this Friday, Oriade features an eclectic roster of guest artists that highlights Davido’s global reach and deep roots in African music. The project includes contributions from Ghana’s Black Sherif, Nigeria’s own Mayorkun and FOLA, rising talents like Jazzwrld, GL_CEEJAY, NO11, and Llona, plus international voices Leon Thomas and French-Malian sensation Aya Nakamura. From “Amazing Grace” to “Yaya” and the closing track “My Light,” the album promises diverse sonic textures while staying true to Davido’s signature Afrobeats foundation.
The full Oriade tracklist unfolds as follows: “On the Road,” “Amazing Grace” featuring Black Sherif, “Julie,” “Constantly,” “I Know Who I Be With” with Jazzwrld and GL_CEEJAY, “Gimme Dat Ting With” featuring NO11, “B4 B4 With” alongside Mayorkun and FOLA, “Already Falling,” “Tell Everybody” featuring Leon Thomas, “Yaya” with Aya Nakamura, “Zanzibar,” “Guide,” and “My Light With” featuring Llona. Social media has already erupted with anticipation as fans dissect the collaborations and debate which tracks will dominate playlists.
With Oriade landing this week, Davido continues to cement his status as one of Afrobeats’ most ambitious architects, building bridges between Lagos, Accra, Paris, and beyond.
