Why I Couldn’t Put Song I Made With Mayorkun on My Album - Davido

Afrobeats superstar Davido is still enjoying a lot of rave reviews, critical acclaim, and commercial success with the release of his latest album, Timeless. The album has been on heavy rotation since it's release and people have been jamming out to a number of songs on the album. But generally, when an album is made, it's not every song that an artiste makes for the album that ends up on the final tracklist. Sometimes, there are songs that get cut for a number of different reasons. In fact, there are stories of whole albums getting scrapped.

During an interview with Beat FM, Davido was asked to reveal some of the artistes who he worked with on this Timeless album, whose songs didn't make it onto the final cut of the album. He listed out the artistes who he had songs with, and gave reasons as to why a number of the songs didn't end up on the final tracklist of the album. Surprisingly, Davido had a song with Mayorkun, which is a duet people always love to see, but that didn't end up on the album. Here is the list of people Davido worked with on his album, and why the reason why the songs with them didn't end up on the album.

During his interview, Davido was asked: "Who did you work with on this project and they didn't make the cut?" Davido responded:

DAVIDO: Ah! Many people o. They are even in my DM like "yo bro, I can't wait", I said "baba e no dey oh!" [laughs]. Uhmm, some cause of like paper work. Who did I work with? There's a list I think, but shoutout to Fridayy. Me and Fridayy had an amazing record but uhmm, it wasn't like - it was a Drake sample, but I called Drake and Drake cleared it for me, but then there were like other people that we couldn't get to in time. So if I probably waited like one more week, I could have gotten it cleared, but I would just put that on the deluxe. Who else? Many people. It's not even like the song no sweet oh, it just depends.

Like me and Mayorkun had a record, one of the writers on the record was just acting crazy. Then after, his head come fix back but it was too late. Uhmm, who else? Capella Grey from New York. Yeah, BLXST, me and BLXST have a record. Who else? In Naija? Me and Kizz have a whole album so we're just keeping that for when we're ready to do that. That's really it. I think that's everybody else apart from like producers.

Wow! I can't wait to hear the other songs that didn't make this cut of the album in the future. Is there any song that made the cut that you're curious to hear? Let me know your thoughts by leaving a comment either below or on my Jide Okonjo Facebook post.
