Nigerian afrobeats sensation David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, captivated the crowd with an exhilarating showcase at the 23rd BET Awards held at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, California.

Taking the stage, the OBO crooner treated the audience to a dynamic medley of his chart-topping hits "Feel" and "Unavailable" from his latest album, "Timeless." The energetic performance had the crowd bouncing and fully engaged.

Davido's appearance marked the second time a Nigerian artist had the opportunity to perform at the prestigious event, following Fireboy DML's memorable performance last year with his hit track "Peru."

In a separate interview with Billboard's Neena Rouhani, Davido discussed the explosive rise of afrobeats in the United States. Expressing his excitement about the night's performance, he said, "I feel good performing tonight. It should be big. It should be amazing; it’s the first time I’m performing at the [BET] Awards, and I’m excited."

Reflecting on his past experiences living in America as an African, particularly in Atlanta and Alabama, Davido shared how he would introduce African music to his American friends, who quickly developed an appreciation for it. He always believed that if given the chance to be heard, the afrobeats movement would eventually flourish.

Davido extended his appreciation to all the afrobeats artists who have been making waves globally, recognizing their hard work, tours, and efforts in spreading the gospel of afrobeats.
