Mayorkun, an Afrobeats singer and songwriter who formerly signed with Davido’s record company, has revealed the advice OBO gave him when he gained fame in the music industry.
Davido Warned Mayorkun About Women
During an interview on In My Opinion, Mayorkun recalled how Davido pulled him aside shortly after he became popular in the music industry and gave him some advice.
Mayorkun said Davido noticed that he was becoming excited about women after he gained fame. He said the Afrobeats superstar advised him not to get too carried away with women and to focus more on his music career. 
Mayorkun said that Davido told him:
“You see all these people, you will see them again, but you will see them with those who are new and when you are no longer in the lime light. So you need to reduce the height of bad bitches. Don’t have this bad bitch syndrome.”
