Nigerian singer and music executive, David Adeleke, better known as Davido, has partnered with United Masters to launch his new label Nine+ Records.
According to the deal, Davido will spearhead artiste development and A&R for a lineup of Nigerian artistes.
Speaking on the fate of his signees in a recent post on X, Davido disclosed that all the artistes currently signed to DMW will move to Nine+.
He wrote, “All dmw artists would be moved to Nine+ records …. Clearing the air!”
Under the partnership with UnitedMasters, owned by Steve Stout, Davido and Nine+ Records are stationed to build a “vanguard” of African musicians with a focus on artist development, A&R, signing, and behind-the-scenes matters.
It would appear that his former record label, Davido Music Worldwide, DMW, launched in 2016, has now been dissolved.
Some of the artistes currently signed to DMW include Dremo, Yonda, Peruzzi, Idowest from Lagos Island, DJ Ecool, Danagog, B-Red, Deekay, May D, Deinde, Ayanfe, Liya, Morravey, SayTheyCallMESG and Logos Olori.
