Afrobeat star, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has spoken about how he ran away from his family’s 60-million-dollar house to sleep in a friend’s studio because of his passion for music.

Davido disclosed this in an interview on REAL 92.3 FM which went viral on Tuesday.

The singer has been trending on social media platforms in the last 24 hours following some of the disclosures he made during the interview monitored by VOICE AIR MEDIA.

The ‘Feel’ crooner said that people once attributed his successful music career to the wealth of his dad.

He said: “What was difficult for me was coming out from a wealthy background because people say his dad is in money, but they later agree that the boy is actually good after several records.

“People love the grass to grace and was down but now I’m up story, but I was never really been down bad.

“We had a $60 million house in Nigeria that I ran away from and was sleeping in my friend’s studio because I know they won’t let me out again once I get home.”
