Why I Stopped Going To Clubs – Davido

Afrobeats singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has opened up about stepping away from the party lifestyle that once shaped his early years in music.

Abia Radio News reports that the singer said his focus has shifted to rest, family, and a calmer way of living.

The singer spoke during an interview on The LongForm Podcast on YouTube, which was shared on Monday, February 3, 2026.

He explained that becoming famous at a young age came with freedom, money, and influence, which naturally pulled him into constant nightlife and club outings.

Davido said clubbing used to be a daily routine for him and his circle, adding that it felt like a normal part of their lives at the time.

However, he noted that those habits no longer appeal to him and belong to the past.

The music star revealed that during a recent stay in Nigeria that lasted almost two months, he barely went out.

Instead, he spent most of his time indoors and found joy in staying home, something he said genuinely made him happy.

According to him, his days now revolve around studio work, quiet relaxation, and small hangouts with close friends.

He explained that activities like recording music, hosting a barbecue, or simply spending time at home now feel more enjoyable than loud parties.

Davido also spoke about how family has become a major part of his daily routine.

He shared that he often prioritizes going home, checking in with his wife, and resting, even describing his new lifestyle as calm and uneventful, yet satisfying.

While his personal life has slowed down, the singer made it clear that he still brings energy when it is time to work.

He said he remains fully active during performances, studio sessions, and shows, stressing that entertainment is still his profession.

Davido added that rest has become very important to him, saying that he now takes every chance he gets to sleep and recover whenever his schedule allows.
