Davido's 'Timeless' Album Earns a Spot on Billboard's Top 50 Albums of 2023

Nigerian superstar Davido has achieved another milestone with his latest album, “Timeless,” which has been listed among Billboard’s Top 50 Albums of 2023. This recognition marks a significant moment in Davido’s career, further cementing his status in the international music scene.

“Timeless,” Davido’s fourth studio album, has not only garnered widespread acclaim but also set new records. This album stands out for its unique blend of Afrobeats, showcasing Davido’s exceptional talent and innovation in the genre. The album’s inclusion in Billboard’s prestigious list is a testament to its global impact, particularly as it holds the 39th position and is noted as a pivotal contribution to the worldwide growth of Afrobeats.

Interestingly, “Timeless” is the only African album to feature on this diverse list, which includes renowned albums like Olivia Rodrigo’s “Guts,” currently in the running for Album of the Year at the 2024 Grammys.

The success of “Timeless” follows a brief hiatus by Davido, which only heightened the anticipation and reception of the album upon its release. Its critical and commercial success has led to a Grammy nomination for Best Global Album at the 2024 Grammys, marking Davido’s first album to receive such recognition.

Furthermore, tracks like “Unavailable,” featuring Musa Keys, and “Feel,” have also received nominations in categories such as Best African Music Performance and Best Global Music Performance, showcasing the album’s wide-ranging appeal and the artist’s versatility.
