Sir Bright Chimezie is probably the happiest Nigerian this past week. That’s because he finally got to have a personal meeting with Davido. Videos show him welcomed in grand style: in a GAC limo-van and a sprawling red carpet.
Dubbed the “Duke of African music,” the 64-year-old is regarded as one of the faces of Igbo highlife and Nigerian traditional music.
For those who are questioning the connection between Sir Chimezie and Davido, one of the songs in the latter’s recent album, “With You” featuring Omah Lay, was inspired by the former’s “Because of English” track.
One legend met another. And it was beautiful to see.
