With his label HKN—and his string of hits on it—Davido has quickly established a prominent position within Nigeria's music scene.

His first album Omo Baba Olowo arrived in 2011, growing his loyal audience with tales of money, women and fame. With a handful of high-profile collaborations mooted for the future, let this playlist recap the story so far.
