Hard work propels talent - Davido

HKN boss, Davido and his long-time producer, Shizzi were guest speakers at the just concluded 3rd edition of the Nigerian Entertainment Conference 2015 where they both made a presentation on ‘How to make a hit song in Nigeria.’

Davido emphasized the need for hardwork and dedication, saying it “always pays off.”

According to the artiste, generally known to have been in affluence all his life, nothing can be compared to hard work.

“I work very hard, we (he and Shizzi) didn’t start perfect like this in the beginning but we kept on recording and the more you record the better you get.

“So, believe me when I tell you that hard work always beats talent. I remember I bought my first laptop when I was 14 and I used to record myself but now it’s all different.”
