He said it was still hard to accept Tiny’s passing, noting that his presence and personality made it even more painful to process his absence.
“His absence is heavy; it doesn’t feel real. A man of so much energy, so much presence. The silence is heavy. I never thought I would be speaking about him in the past tense,” he said.
Davido went on to describe Tiny as someone who always brought energy wherever he was, adding that it was difficult to believe he was gone.
The tribute quickly sparked reactions online, with many fans expressing shock and sadness, saying they were unaware of his passing until the video went viral.
Also present at the event was Davido’s close friend Cubana Chiefpriest, who was seen emotional as the tribute was delivered, further highlighting the depth of the loss felt by those around him.
