LONDON – Afrobeat superstar Davido has earned a spot on King Charles III’s personally curated playlist, King’s Music Room, recorded at Buckingham Palace. The exclusive selection, crafted by the British monarch, showcases his favorite tracks from artists across the Commonwealth, including legendary names such as Bob Marley, Kylie Minogue, and Grace Jones.
In unveiling the playlist, King Charles III expressed his deep appreciation for music and its ability to evoke powerful emotions and memories.
“Throughout my life, music has meant a great deal to me. I know that is also the case for so many others,” he said. “It has that remarkable ability to bring happy memories flooding back from the deepest recesses of our memory, to comfort us in times of sadness, and to take us to distant places. But perhaps, above all, it can lift our spirits to such a degree, and all the more so when it brings us together in celebration. In other words, it brings us joy.”
With this playlist, the King not only shares the music that brings him happiness but also highlights the profound cultural influence of artists from across the Commonwealth.
