Davido, the Nigerian singer, has reacted to a claim by Napji, the music producer, that he has yet to complete his payment for “royalties and publishing”.
In an X post on Tuesday, the producer claimed the singer has yet to fully pay him for producing three songs off his 2020 album ‘A Better Time’.
Napji, who claimed to have produced ‘Fem’, ‘Jowo’, and ‘Sunlight’, added that he would release more details soon.
“I am Napji, the producer behind Fem, Jowo and sunlight on @davido album (A better time) which was released on November 13, 2020,” he wrote.
“I was paid an advance of 500 thousand naira for each of the songs. I will be releasing more information as I seek to collect my royalties & publish.”
In his reaction, Davido, who neither denied nor confirmed the claim, hurled insults at Napji.
The Afrobeats star had faced similar accusations in the past.
In August 2023, Alabi Adetutu, the Nigerian model, accused Davido of owing her for her role in ‘Wonder Woman’ visuals.
In 2022, Dammy Krane, the singer, also called out Davido to pay him for his contribution to the hit song ‘Pere’.
Krane said despite co-writing the 2017 hit song — which featured Rae Sremmurd and rapper Young Thug — “Davido is yet to pay my outstanding fee”.
