In a recent interview with 3Music TV in Accra, Ghana, singer-songwriter Wurld opened up about his decision to give the hit song “Blow My Mind” to renowned Nigerian musician Davido. This revelation sheds light on the backstory of the popular track that was released in 2019 by American R&B singer Chris Brown and Davido, with Wurld claiming authorship of the song.
During the interview, Wurld shared that when the song was initially in development, he couldn't envision a suitable purpose for it within his own projects. Recognizing the potential of the track, he made the spontaneous decision to offer it to Davido, believing that the Afrobeat superstar would be the perfect fit for the collaboration. Wurld expressed his confidence in Davido's ability to elevate the song to new heights.
Wurld reflected on the spontaneity of the decision, stating, “It [giving ‘Blow My Mind’ to Davido] wasn’t planned. I was in Lagos promoting my project, ‘Love Is Contagious’, and I got a call from my guy, producer Shizzi… It was even one of those things I didn’t plan for because I was gonna use the song myself. I wanted to get some features on the record, but I was promoting a new project, and I didn’t have time.
“I didn’t have a use for ‘Blow My Mind’ at that time. Davido and Chris Brown, it’s just a beautiful thing to lend my art with another artiste and at the same time see how well the song is done.”
