Davido discussed his early music career, his growth in the industry, and his first contact with his mentor, Don Baba J, in an interview with YouTuber Tayo Aina.

The musician, who just purchased one of the 150 limited edition Mercedes-Maybach cars, characterized his first meeting with Don Jazzy as “extraordinary,” comparing it to meeting Jesus.

In addition, he acknowledged Don Jazzy as his mentor, noting that standing in his presence at their first meeting required courage.

In his words, “Don Jazzy was my mentor. I remember the first time I saw him, it felt like I was looking at Jesus. It was truly amazing.”

In response to the interview, Don Jazzy gushed over Davido’s achievements. He mentioned that Davido’s work ethic, despite his considerable success and wealth, serves as a constant source of motivation for him regardless of being his mentor.

He also acknowledged not letting the singer down particularly because of the pedestal he placed him as his mentee.

“And that’s how life is @davido Now I look at all you have achieved and I am super proud of you. Even with all that success and wealth I look at your work ethic and I am highly motivated. I’m glad that as a mentor I haven’t let you down too. We thank GOD. More blessings bro,” he wrote.

O.B.O in response to the note from the Mavins records boss acknowledged it with, “Baba mi,” while adding heart emojis.
