Davido Gifts Mayorkun a Cybertruck, Rekindles Their Strong Bond Years After DMW Exit
Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Davido has once again demonstrated the enduring relationship he shares with former signee Mayorkun by announcing that he will gift the singer a brand-new Cybertruck.
The surprise gesture was revealed on Davido's Instagram Story, where he instructed an automobile company to deliver the luxury electric vehicle to Mayorkun.
"My gift to you. I love you. @babzii_chilling, please have it delivered tomorrow," Davido wrote.
Reacting to the generous gift, an appreciative Mayorkun reposted the message on his own Instagram Story, expressing his gratitude and loyalty to his former label boss.
"Love 4L, 001," Mayorkun wrote, referring to Davido's popular nickname.
The heartwarming exchange has delighted fans, many of whom have praised the duo for maintaining a close relationship despite Mayorkun's departure from Davido Music Worldwide (DMW).
Davido played a pivotal role in launching Mayorkun's music career after discovering him through a viral Instagram video in 2016. Shortly after signing him to DMW, Mayorkun released his breakout single, "Eleko," which became an instant hit and established him as one of Nigeria's fastest-rising artists.
Since then, Mayorkun has repeatedly acknowledged Davido's influence on his career, describing him as both a mentor and a brother. In previous interviews, he recalled how Davido's phone call prompted him to quit his banking job and pursue music full-time.
Mayorkun's mother, Toyosi Adewale, has also spoken warmly about Davido, revealing in an interview earlier this year that she became emotional when she first saw her son working with the award-winning singer. She praised Davido and his team for their humility and respect.
The latest gesture further reinforces the bond between the two artistes, showing that their relationship has remained strong even after Mayorkun moved on from DMW.
Opinion: Loyalty Is Rare, and Davido and Mayorkun Continue to Show It
The entertainment industry is often filled with stories of broken relationships between artists and the labels that helped launch their careers. That is why the friendship between Davido and Mayorkun continues to stand out.
Rather than allowing business changes to damage their relationship, both artists have consistently shown mutual respect and appreciation for each other's contributions. Davido's decision to gift Mayorkun a Cybertruck goes beyond material generosity—it reflects a bond built on loyalty, trust, and genuine friendship.
Mayorkun has also never shied away from acknowledging Davido's role in his success. From his early interviews to award acceptance speeches, he has repeatedly credited the Afrobeats star for believing in his talent when few others did.
In an industry where success can sometimes strain relationships, moments like this remind fans that gratitude and loyalty still have a place. Whether through mentorship, support, or simple acts of kindness, Davido and Mayorkun continue to set an example of how professional relationships can evolve into lasting friendships.
