Davido pays tribute to Sound Sultan in new music video

Afrobeats sensation Davido has paid tribute to the late music legend Sound Sultan in his latest music video. Released on August 12, 2025, the video for the song "10 Kilo" is a vibrant celebration of body confidence and femininity, featuring a diverse cast of women celebrating various body types and cultures.

Directed by the acclaimed Director Pink, the video showcases Davido's signature charisma and joyful aesthetic. The video includes a subtle yet powerful tribute to Sound Sultan, whom Davido has long admired for his socially conscious lyrics and genre-blending music.

Sound Sultan, known for hits like "Jagbajantis" and "Mathematics," passed away in July 2021, leaving a legacy of innovation and activism in the Nigerian music industry. This tribute in Davido's video follows his previous nods to late icons and comes after his recent opulent white wedding in Miami, signaling a joyous new chapter in the star's life.
