Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Davido has once again made headlines, but this time it’s not about a new single or a sold-out tour. Reports now estimate his net worth at $100 million dollars, making him one of the richest artistes in Africa. This milestone has sparked conversations online, with many asking how he reached this point and whether he still depends on his billionaire father’s money.
What Is Davido’s Current Net Worth?
As of 2025, Davido’s net worth is widely estimated at $100 million. This figure comes from a mix of his music earnings, worldwide tours, brand endorsements, streaming revenue, and personal investments.
Celebrity wealth trackers such as CelebrityNetWorth list him at this value, and Nigerian outlets often place him in the $90–100 million range. While these numbers are not audited by financial institutions, they reflect how much Davido has built independently over the years.
How Did Davido Make His $100 Million Fortune?
Davido’s rise to this financial level is tied to several income streams:

- Music sales and streaming – His hit singles and albums dominate Apple Music, Spotify, and Boomplay charts, generating millions in royalties.
- Tours and concerts – Davido sells out arenas across Africa, Europe, and America, pulling in huge ticket sales.
- Endorsement deals – He has worked with major brands including Puma, Martell Cognac, Pepsi, and Infinix, adding millions to his bank account.
- Record label & business – Through his label DMW (Davido Music Worldwide), he not only earns from his own music but also from artistes signed under him.
- Personal investments – Davido has interests in real estate, cars, and other business ventures.
Is Davido Still Using His Father’s Money?
This has been a recurring debate since Davido entered the music scene. His father, Dr. Adedeji Adeleke, is a billionaire businessman with investments in real estate, education, and energy. Reports suggest Dr. Adeleke’s net worth is above $2 billion.
However, Davido has proven himself by building his own fortune. From headlining Coachella to winning major international awards, his achievements stand on their own. Hitting a $100 million net worth is a strong response to critics who claim his success only comes from family wealth.
How Does Davido’s Wealth Compare to Other Nigerian Artistes?
The Nigerian music industry is filled with wealthy stars, but Davido now sits among the top:
- Wizkid – Estimated net worth of around $70–80 million.
- Burna Boy – Estimated at 30–35 million.
- Olamide – Estimated around $25 million.
With his latest valuation, Davido matches or surpasses many of his peers, solidifying his status as one of the wealthiest entertainers in Africa.
What Is Davido’s Father’s Net Worth?
Dr. Adedeji Adeleke, Davido’s father, is a successful businessman and philanthropist. While some outlets claim his net worth is about $2.2 billion, there is no official audited confirmation. What is certain is that he is one of the wealthiest men in Nigeria, with ownership of Adeleke University, Pacific Holdings, and other high-value investments.
