Afrobeats sensation David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido marked his 33rd birthday today with an intimate gathering of family, close friends, and key members of his 30BG crew in Atlanta, United States.

The celebration brought together prominent figures from his inner circle, including billionaire father Adedeji Adeleke, uncle and Osun Governor Ademola Adeleke, sister Sharon Adeleke, cousins Nike and Folashade Adeleke, wife Chioma Rowland Adeleke, manager Asa, and longtime collaborator DJ ECool.

Held ahead of a sold-out concert at the 21,000-seat State Farm Arena as part of his ongoing 5ive Alive Tour, the event featured a lively atmosphere filled with music, laughter, and heartfelt toasts.

Videos circulating online captured Davido at the center of the festivities, surrounded by loved ones.

Reflecting on his path during the party, Davido highlighted his evolution from a teenage artist to a global icon.

He noted that he released his debut single at age 17 and now, at 33, views the past year as one of his most fulfilling.

“I dropped my first song when I was 17, and now I’m 33. This year is one of my best years ever; I got married to the most beautiful woman and we had our babies”, he said.

The singer credited much of this joy to his recent marriage to Chioma and the arrival of his twins.

Davido also generated buzz among fans by announcing progress on his sixth studio album, just seven months after the April 18 launch of his fifth project, 5ive.
