It also has popular in-house producers like Pheelz and Young John the Wicked Producer.

Davido Music Worldwide (DMW)

Formerly a member of the HKN gang, a label that seemed more like a family business because it was co-owned by Davido and his brother Wale; and 2 of their cousins B-Red and Shina Rambo were already signed to the label.

Apparently, Davido left the record label to establish his own label which is known today as DMW.

Currently, the 2 artists who are signed to the label are:
