Davido has teased his joint-album with Chris Brown could finally drop in 2026.
Davido has officially confirmed that a full-scale joint project with American R&B icon Chris Brown is on the way. “OBO,” broke the news during an exclusive interview with Billboard Arabia for their January 2026 cover story. Set for release in 2026, this collaboration builds on their longstanding friendship and musical synergy, sparking widespread excitement from fans on social media.
Davido’s revelations in the Billboard Arabia interview were extensive. The multi-award-winning Afrobeats star delved into his journey from local roots to international stardom, before casually dropping the bombshell about his project with the two-time Grammy winner, stating,”I have a project with Chris Brown, by the grace of God, coming out next year.”
Davido previously hinted that Chris Brown have already recorded over 20 songs for the album.
During an appearance on The Ebro Show on Apple Music, the Nigerian star revealed: “We could put out two albums right now. It’s going to happen. I really wanted him to have his moment this year. Then next year, the Europe & African tour with the Davido & Chris Brown album.”
The album is expected to feature a vibrant blend of Afrobeats, R&B, and pop, a fusion they have perfected over several years.
Davido is currently riding high on the success of his fifth studio album, 5IVE, which features the latest collaboration with Brown titled “Titanium”.
Chris Brown’s team has yet to comment extensively on the upcoming project but anticipation is at an all-time high. This project not only highlights Davido’s ambition to expand Afrobeats’ reach but also underscores Brown’s ongoing embrace of diverse sounds.
