Afrobeats superstar Davido has officially declared his return to the music scene, announcing his highly anticipated new single, “I Know Who I Be,” set for release this Friday, June 26, 2026.
The track marks his first official solo release of the year and signals the beginning of a fresh chapter.
“The journey to the throne begins,” Davido wrote, confirming the release date and igniting a wave of excitement across his global fanbase.

Anticipation for the track has been building rapidly. Davido initially teased a snippet during a gym workout video, and the buzz intensified further when a streamer accidentally leaked a portion of the unreleased song live. Since then, the catchy hook, “Your story is my story… I know who I be,” has spread widely across social media platforms, with fans dissecting the previews shared on pages.
With the full song set to drop this Friday, Davido’s “I Know Who I Be” is poised to be one of the summer’s biggest Afrobeats releases.
