Morravey

There are thousands of girls with beautiful voices in Nigeria, and hundreds who sing covers of afrobeats hits and post them on social media. But there are not many who get spotted by Davido. As she tells DJ Edu, Morravey was dumbstruck when Davido reached out to her, having seen her cover of Bandana by Fireboy DML and Asake. It didn’t take long for her to abandon her studies, pack up her bags and leave Port Harcourt for Lagos. That was in 2023, and now Morravey, still only 22, is signed to Davido’s label, has performed with him and features on his song In the Garden. Davido also appears on her own title, Magician. Morravey has a string of popular tracks including Ifineme, Condo and You. She tells DJ Edu she has had no singing lessons, but has been watching and learning from other artists, imitating their vocal techniques, since she was 15. Beyonce and Zara Larsson are especially big influences.When it comes to her storytelling, Morravey’s sources are wide ranging, but she likes to watch movies and imagine herself in the shoes of the characters on screen.
