Music Duo Reveals Rejecting Davido’s Early Support Offer

Music executive Ameen and renowned producer Krizbeatz have revealed that they turned down an offer from Afrobeats superstar Davido to sponsor one of their music videos early in their careers. They say they chose ownership and independence over hype and immediate visibility. 

Speaking during an interview on TVC Entertainment, the duo explained that the decision was never about pride or disrespect, but about being intentional with ownership, independence, and long-term vision, as they understood the importance of building their brand on their own terms. 

During the interview, Ameen shared that at that stage, they wanted to understand the value of controlling their creative direction, their brand, and their business, while Krizbeatz emphasised that many young creatives focus only on immediate visibility without considering the long-term implications of partnerships and funding.
