Davido and NO11 Join Forces on New Single “Gimme Dat Ting”
Davido has linked up with NO11 for a new Afrobeats single titled Gimme Dat Ting. The record arrives as a standalone drop, with no album or larger project attached to it at this stage, and it is billed as a joint release rather than a lead-artist-plus-feature arrangement.
For Davido, one of the most recognisable names Nigerian music has produced, a collaborative single like this fits a pattern fans know well. Across his career he has consistently used joint records to spotlight newer or less exposed acts, and those co-signs have historically carried real weight in the Afrobeats ecosystem. Sharing top billing on a title, rather than tucking a name into a feature credit, is a deliberate choice.
Why the Co-Billing Matters for NO11
For NO11, standing shoulder to shoulder with an artist of Davido’s stature on an official release is the kind of moment that changes an artist’s visibility overnight. Afrobeats audiences pay close attention to who Davido chooses to work with, and a shared single puts NO11’s name in front of playlist curators, DJs and casual listeners who may be encountering it for the first time. The immediate question fans will be asking is simple: who is NO11, and what do they bring to a record with one of the genre’s biggest stars?
The title itself signals the lane the two are aiming for. “Gimme Dat Ting” reads like a record made for social settings rather than quiet listening, and that is the expectation most listeners will carry into their first play. It is built for party playlists, weekend link-ups, DJ sets and the short-video platforms where Afrobeats singles increasingly find their audience.
Where this sits in Davido’s wider run is worth watching too. Every release from him is scrutinised for clues about his next project, and a joint single outside of an announced album keeps his name active between bigger rollouts while giving NO11 a platform. Whether this turns out to be a one-off or the start of a longer working relationship between the two is something the coming months will answer.
The single is available now on official streaming platforms, which is where fans should head to support both artists.
