MNT hit maker product, KiDi has revealed that it was Nigerian superstar Davido who contacted him for the remix of his hit single, Odɔ and the prospect of working with an icon made him grabbed the opportunity with both hands.
KiDi revealed that it was actually Davido’s record label signee, Mayorkun who facilitated the deal. Although the original version is one of the most popular songs in Ghana and beyond, the remix has not lived up to expectation. Explaining the reason behind, the young musician said the remix was not done to outshine the original song and he couldn’t also turn down Davido’s offer.
He said:
Something I’ve always wanted Ghanaians to understand is, the original was loved by many Ghanaians and we didn’t do the remix to come and overtake what you already love.
The remix was done because Davido came down and said he wanted to be on the remix, and he’s one of the biggest artistes in Africa so you don’t turn down such an offer. He is a very respectable person and I’m honored to have him on my song.
I mean, why not? And it’s also a way to sell myself to the Nigerian market because now, Nigerians play my song every day on radio and on their TV station. They now know who Kidi is.
