ALBUM REVIEW: With "Timeless," Davido reassures fans of musical dominance
The driving force may be different for Davido, but the need to stand up for himself is urgent and real. And that's one of the things "Timeless" is made for. A lot has changed in the industry since he launched his third album in 2020. Grammys have been won, platinum records have been obtained, Afrobeats has achieved international success, and a newbie has uncharacteristically dominated the year.
It was evident from the roll-out that Davido is taking a different approach than on his prior albums. The album's tracklist gave us our first look at its aesthetic composition. With the exception of Asake, there was a noticeable absence of both domestic and foreign heavy hitters, who were replaced by an electrifying group of rising, rapidly ascending, and established stars. With their help, Davido aimed to sonically elevate the project while also covering a wide base, which is crucial for an artist of his stature.
