“Davido’s Album Is Just There” – Influencer Geh Geh Critiques ‘5ive’, Says Chris Brown Feature Was Unnecessary
Davido’s newly released album, “5ive”, has been trending for all the right reasons — or so we thought.
Popular Nigerian influencer and online personality Geh Geh has stirred fresh debate after sharing his unsolicited opinion on the project, claiming the album is “average” and lacks artistic growth.
In a candid video that’s now making rounds on social media, Geh Geh went straight for the jugular:
“Davido is not evolving; you no dey change, your brand is the same. E just be like say since the days of Dami Duro, nothing really change about Davido. Even the sound no dey evolve.”
If that wasn’t enough spice, he added that some of the collaborations, particularly the one with American superstar Chris Brown, were unnecessary.
“Chris Brown? For what? We’ve heard this combo too many times. It’s giving ‘we no get fresh idea’ vibes,” he said.
💭 OPINION: Constructive Criticism or Clout Chase?
Now, while everyone is entitled to their opinion, the tone and delivery of Geh Geh’s critique raises eyebrows. Davido’s 5ive album, praised by fans for its blend of Afrobeats, Amapiano, and international flavor, may not be to everyone’s taste — but to call it “average” without acknowledging its global strategy seems a bit dismissive.
Davido has consistently collaborated with big names like Nicki Minaj, Summer Walker, and Chris Brown — a sign not of creative stagnation, but of international relevance.
🎧 The Evolution of Davido: Are We Being Fair?
Let’s be honest — every artist has a signature sound. For Davido, it’s the fusion of high-energy Afrobeats with melodies that stick. Saying he's not evolving because he still sounds like “Dami Duro” is like saying Burna Boy sounds like “Like to Party” — growth doesn’t always mean total transformation.
Instead of tearing down what works, maybe we should focus on the intent behind the music, and the effort to bridge African and global audiences.
🌍 What the Fans Are Saying
Some fans agree with Geh Geh’s sentiments, noting that the album lacked “freshness,” while others are defending Davido with passion:
“Not every feature needs to be deep. Some are for vibes and chart success.”
“Davido is playing the long game — collaborations are strategy.”
“Geh Geh should drop his own album first, make we review am.”
Whether or not you agree with Geh Geh, one thing is clear — Davido’s “5ive” is the talk of the town, and everyone’s got something to say.
