In a recent interview with 3Music TV in Accra, Ghana, Nigerian singer and songwriter Sadiq Onifade, also known as WurlD, revealed the reason behind giving his song ‘Blow My Mind’ to Davido.
WurlD explained that he wrote the song, which was eventually released by Davido and featured American R&B star Chris Brown in 2019, because he didn’t have any plans to use it himself at the time.
He said, “It [giving ‘Blow My Mind’ to Davido] wasn’t planned. I was in Lagos promoting my project, ‘Love Is Contagious’, and I got a call from my guy, producer Shizzi… It was even one of those things I didn’t plan for because I was gonna use the song myself. I wanted to get some features on the record, but I was promoting a new project, and I didn’t have time.
“I didn’t have a use for ‘Blow My Mind’ at that time. Davido and Chris Brown, it’s just a beautiful thing to lend my art with another artiste and at the same time and see how well the song is done.”
