The 27-year-old had no plans to release an album in 2020, however, he found himself with more free time when the pandemic happened and forced people to stay indoors.

With the help of producers working from his home in Nigeria they managed to work on a dozen of songs; 17 appear on “A Better Time.”

“I just kept on recording. I had nothing else to do,” Davido said during a previous interview.

If, Fall, D&G, Sweet In The Middle, Risky and Blow My Mind are some of his successful singles.
