Afrobeat musician Davido’s new track, “Awuke,” featuring YG Marley, has received a below-average grade from social media critic Daniel Regha.
Davido released his new single “Awuke” on October 31st featuring Jamaican singer YG Marley after weeks of anticipation from admirers.
Daniel Regha shared on Twitter (X) that the new track, which is the singer’s first release of 2024, is underwhelming and lacks musical intensity. The lyrics showed little development, despite the song’s depth and nice rhythmic patterns.
He added that Davido’s energy wasn’t in sync with the Jamaican singer’s. Regha gave the song a 2.5 out of 10, speculating that the Afrobeat artist might be running out of tunes for his fans to hear.
He wrote,
“Davido’s “Awuke” ft YG Marley feels l@zy, which is disappointing since it’s his first single of 2024; The song is catchy thanks to the flow, but lyrically speaking it shows a lack of growth. The post-chorus is also completely off & could’ve been better-written to give the song some substance. Furthermore, YG didn’t really match Davido’s energy & didn’t nail the refrain. Hopefully this isn’t the lead single for his next project/album, cos it feels like he (Davido) is running out of things to sing about. The track is a 2.5/10. No offense.”
