Nigerian social media was recently set abuzz with drama and humor after old tweets from Toye, the latest artist signed to Davido’s label, resurfaced online.
According to a report by Legit.ng, award-winning Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has welcomed a fresh talent, Toye, to his music label. The announcement was made on April 28 via Davido’s social media platforms, where he simply posted, “Just signed @toye.”
