On April 29, Davido confirmed during an appearance on The Ebro Show that he and Chris Brown are finalizing a joint project. The EP, currently untitled, is scheduled to drop ahead of a 2026 global tour. While specifics remain under wraps, Davido stated the project is “locked,” suggesting finalization is imminent.
The tour will cover multiple continents, including confirmed stops across Europe and Africa. Davido will also appear as a guest at Chris Brown’s upcoming 2025 “Breezy Bowl” tour in celebration of Brown’s 20-year music career.
A Long-Brewing Collaboration
This is not their first crossover. Davido and Chris Brown first teamed up in 2019 with “Blow My Mind,” a hit that combined Afrobeats with slick R&B production. The song was well received and laid the foundation for a relationship that has since grown musically and personally.
Subsequent collaborations followed, including “Lower Body,” “Shopping Spree,” and the 2023 single “Sensational,” featuring Lojay. The latter earned both artists a Grammy nomination and marked Davido’s first Billboard Hot 100 entry.
Over 20 Songs Recorded
Davido revealed they have recorded more than 20 songs together. Many of these tracks remain unreleased. While no tracklist has been shared, the volume of material suggests the potential for multiple projects.
We can drop two albums tomorrow if we want, Davido said during the interview.
Tour Plans and Format
The joint tour is being timed for maximum impact. Set for 2026, the Davido and Chris Brown tour will span Europe and Africa. The delay is a deliberate and strategic move. Davido just dropped 5ive in April 2025, and it’s a heavy hitter, loaded with collaborations, including one with Chris Brown. Right now, his full focus is on pushing that album, not splitting the spotlight.
At the same time, Chris Brown is stepping into his own moment. 2025 marks 20 years since his debut, and he is rolling out the red carpet for himself with the “Breezy Bowl”, a massive anniversary celebration tour that is already heating up.
Rather than rush out their joint project just to ride the hype, the two artists are playing the long game. As Davido put it, they already have over 20 tracks locked and loaded. They are just waiting for the right moment, as 2026 is the launch window. When both finally hit the road together, it would not be a side project, it would be the main event.
Davido and Chris Brown are entering a new chapter, one rooted in consistency, creativity, and a clear sense of direction. The upcoming EP and tour represent the culmination of years spent building, recording, and aligning their visions. Every step so far has led to this moment, and it is unfolding with purpose.
There is no rush, no noise, just work being done, music being made, and plans taking shape. The collaboration has depth, backed by real-time studio sessions and a catalog that is been steadily growing behind the scenes. Now, with everything in motion, the path ahead is focused and intentional.
What’s coming is the product of years of work, and it’s finally ready to meet the world.
