Grammy-nominated artist Davido has achieved another milestone with his collaboration on Kizz Daniel’s song “Twe Twe.” Despite facing criticisms, the remix of the hit song has become the fastest Afrobeats track to surpass 100,000 Shazams within just seven days.
The duo released the remix a week ago, and the positive reception has been evident as fans celebrate the accomplishment. Critics, however, haven’t held back, particularly focusing on Davido’s lyrics in the remix.
One Twitter critic, Daniel Regha, expressed disappointment in the collaboration, stating that the original song was already subpar, and Davido’s involvement made it worse. Regha critiqued Davido’s verses, pointing out what he considered pointless rhymes and criticized some of the lyrics.
Despite the criticisms, the song continues to perform well, gaining recognition for its remarkable achievement within a short period.
This accomplishment adds to Davido’s impressive list of achievements as he prepares for the 2024 Grammys on Monday. His comeback album, “Timeless,” has earned him three Grammy nominations in categories such as Best Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Global Music Album.
Addressing his critics and celebrating his successes, Davido emphasized the significance of not underestimating the journey, noting that his delayed Grammy recognition does not equate to denial. He pointed out the mockery he faced for lacking a Grammy nomination, highlighting how he now holds multiple nominations, showcasing his resilience and determination in the music industry.
