Nigerian singer, David Adedeji Adeleke popularly known as Davido’s name has surfaced in King Charles III’s special Commonwealth Music playlist.

The playlist, set for release on Monday, March 11, celebrates music from Commonwealth nations as part of Commonwealth Day events.

The project titled ‘The King’s Music Room’, features Bob Marley, Kylie Minogue, Grace Jones, and Raye, alongside Davido.

The playlist curated by King Charles III, in collaboration with Apple Music, reflects songs that bring him joy and nostalgia from different periods of his life.

The King said in a statement, “Throughout my life, music has meant a great deal to me.”
