Afrobeats superstar Davido has gifted former Davido Music Worldwide (DMW) signee Mayorkun a Tesla Cybertruck, publicly celebrating their enduring friendship years after the singer departed the record label.
The surprise gift was revealed on Sunday through Davido’s Instagram Story, where the award-winning singer shared a photo of the luxury electric pickup truck and announced it was for Mayorkun. He also instructed an associate to arrange for its delivery the following day, while Mayorkun later acknowledged the gesture on his own Instagram Story.
Sharing the announcement, Davido wrote, “My gift to you I love you 
@iammayorkun cc @babzii_chilling pls have it delivered 2moro .”
Mayorkun responded by reposting the message on his Instagram Story with the caption, “Love 4L, 001,” expressing appreciation for the gift and reaffirming his long-standing bond with Davido.
The gesture comes several years after Mayorkun, whose full name is Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, left DMW. He was signed to the label in 2016 after Davido discovered one of his cover videos online and subsequently launched his career with the hit single Eleko.
During his time with DMW, Mayorkun released several successful projects, including his debut album The Mayor of Lagos, before exiting the label in 2021 to pursue the next phase of his career.
The Tesla Cybertruck, Tesla’s all-electric pickup truck distinguished by its stainless-steel exterior and angular design, is priced in the United States from about $69,990, with higher-specification models costing significantly more.
Davido’s latest gesture has drawn widespread attention on social media, with many fans pointing to it as another example of the cordial relationship the two entertainers have maintained despite ending their formal artist-label partnership.
