Davido just wrapped celebrating his uncle Ademola Adeleke’s win in the Osun State gubernatorial election, and he’s already moved on to the next big moment, dropping the official visuals for “Tell Everybody,” his romantic collab with American singer and producer Leon Thomas.
The track lives on his latest album “Oriade,” and the video gives it a treatment that matches the song’s sheer scale.
The clip is set inside a sprawling mansion with high ceilings, gold mirrors, crystal chandeliers, and classical portrait paintings lining the walls.
Davido opens in a black velvet tuxedo before switching to a sky-blue suit with gold-trimmed lapels, dark-tinted glasses, and an embellished crown-like cap that ties directly into the Oriade, meaning “crowned head,” concept behind the album.
Leon Thomas holds his own on the style front in a cream-patterned jacket, two-tone relaxed trousers, and a black leather durag.
Dancers in Victorian-inspired couture move through sharp, synchronised routines across the ballroom floor and down a sweeping wooden staircase while the two artists trade verses.
The song itself is about as direct as love songs get. Davido’s central line, “Tell everybody, you’re what matters to me,” sets the tone for the whole track, a full-throated refusal to keep the relationship quiet.
There’s no ambiguity about what he’s going for here, and the video’s grand aesthetic doubles down on that same energy.
Leon Thomas brings a slightly different angle to the collaboration. He admits in his verse that he normally keeps his private life locked down, but this particular connection is too strong to stay hidden.
Lines about needing affection to fight loneliness and calling her his sanity give the song a rawer, more personal edge underneath all the opulence.
That contrast between the two artists actually makes the track work better than a straightforward love song might. Davido is broadcasting, Leon Thomas is confessing, and together they cover both sides of what it feels like to be completely caught up in someone.
The video’s grand staging reflects Davido’s side of that equation more than Leon’s, but the performances balance it out.
Tell Everybody” was already one of the more talked-about cuts on “Oriade” when the album landed, and the video is likely to push it further into rotation.
The combination of the ballroom concept, the costuming, and the choreography gives it a visual identity that stands apart from the standard performance-and-lifestyle clip format that dominates Afrobeats visuals right now.
Davido has been on a consistent run since the album dropped, and pairing the release with the momentum from his uncle’s political win keeps his name in multiple conversations at once.
Whether that timing was intentional or just good luck, it’s hard to ignore the way the two moments have overlapped.
The video is out now, and reactions are still coming in across social media as fans dig into the details of the styling and the choreography.
