Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Davido continues to make waves with his hit single "Funds," featuring the dynamic talents of Odumodublvck and Chike. Released on December 6, 2024, "Funds" serves as the second single from his highly anticipated fifth studio album, "5ive," which finally dropped on April 18, 2025.
"Funds" is an infectious track that blends Afrobeats with Amapiano influences, creating a vibrant and catchy sound. Davido's signature vocals, combined with Odumodublvck's energetic rap flow and Chike's smooth, melodic contributions, make for a compelling collaboration. The song cleverly samples the iconic South African classic "Vulindlela" by Brenda Fassie, adding a nostalgic yet fresh element to the track. In "Funds," Davido showcases his characteristic themes of affluence and romance, singing in a mix of English and Pidgin about a captivating woman he intends to spoil with the finer things in life.
The release of "Funds" was strategically timed to build anticipation for "5ive." Davido initially teased the song on social media, creating a buzz among his massive fanbase. The single quickly gained popularity, becoming a staple in playlists and a viral sound on social media platforms. The official music video, which premiered shortly after the song's release, further amplified its reach, garnering millions of views and positive reactions.
"Funds" is more than just a catchy tune; it's a testament to Davido's ability to evolve his sound while staying true to his Afrobeats roots. The collaboration with Odumodublvck and Chike highlights the diverse and collaborative spirit of the Nigerian music scene. As fans eagerly embraced "Funds," it solidified the anticipation for the full "5ive" album, which promises even more exciting collaborations and musical explorations. With "5ive" now available, "Funds" stands out as a strong precursor to what many are already calling one of the biggest Afrobeats albums of the year. The success of "Funds" underscores Davido's continued relevance and influence in the global music landscape.
