Maleek Berry Shares His Journey to Stardom
Nigerian singer and producer, Maleek Berry shares his encounter with Davido in the early days of their career. During an appearance on the ’90s Baby’ podcast, the ‘Kontrol’ artist recounted how Davido, despite his affluent background, pretended to be struggling while they were both working together in the studio.
Berry reminisced about a time when Davido had only accumulated four thousand views on YouTube. He recalled taking him to a studio in Bermondsey when Davido visited London. Their connection was facilitated by one of Davido’s cousins through social media, and at that point, neither of them had gained much recognition in the industry.
“He blended in with us like one of those kids without money,” Berry said. “But when I visited his father’s mansion, I was astonished. There’s a level of wealth that’s beyond imagination.” Berry expressed his surprise upon seeing the luxurious residence. “It was eye-opening,” he stated, explaining how Davido’s demeanor had misled him regarding his financial status. Additionally, Berry revealed that it was Davido who eventually introduced him to Wizkid years later.
Nigerian music executive Ubi Franklin has spoken about his past marriage and shared the painful experience he went through before it ended.
He shared “On the 4th of January 2015, that’s when I met my now ex-wife. I engaged her on the 19th of March 2015. After I engaged her, I set up a nice dinner at the Red Restaurant of the Eko Hotel. I invited all my friends, big boys, everybody. She didn’t turn up. She had dropped the ring and left,” he recalled.
He also said “I was so embarrassed because it was a big thing on social media. Everybody was talking about it. Have you ever cried to a point where you cannot cry again? That’s where I was.”
He shared that even after everything, they eventually got married, but in the end, the marriage did not last. He also spoke about the emotional stress he went through.
