Watch superstar perform 'Aye' at the Fader Fort [Video]
The superstar singer who is the recent cover of Fader magazine, was full of life as he closed out a high energy set-complete with a troupe of dancers decked out in Nigeria’s national colours the song like never before with the audience cheering away.
In 2014, Fader Magazine ranked Davido’s ‘Aye’ as the 81st best track of 2014, amongst a 116 track list of songs all over the world.
Written by David Drake, 'Aye' was described as "a complex mesh of cross-rhythms. This intricacy provides a nest for some gorgeous high-pitched guitar tones, which cut through the noise like birds chirping a love song. At the song's heart, though, is Davido's vocal performance, which communicates sincerity with a complete lack of self-consciousness or duplicity, a feeling of confident optimism bubbling over with certainty: Nobody can love you like I do/ No one can touch you like I do. This is the idealization of devotion, rendered in full color."
The African pop star had recently put pen to paper signing a music publishing and distribution deal with Sony Music BMG, which will see him release two albums over the course of more than a year.
The singer revealed that his highly anticipated sophomore album “Baddest” may not be released in 2016 after all, explaining that it would require more time to put together to give it a global appeal.
