I Know Who I Be is a single from Davido featuring Jazzwrld and GL_Ceejay, released June 26, 2026. Jazzwrld is a Lesotho-based artist and GL_Ceejay is South African, making this one of the more geographically spread collaborations in Davido's recent catalogue — a West African superstar pulling in voices from Lesotho and South Africa for a record built around self-belief, identity and staying true to yourself through challenge and success. Davido announced the release on his X account on June 22, writing "The journey to the throne begins. My next single I Know Who I Be releases June 26th," a statement that drew immediate attention given he had revealed in May that he was taking a temporary break from music.
I Know Who I Be marks Davido's first solo single since Be There Still in March 2025, ending his longest gap between solo releases in recent memory. The announcement also came just days after he performed at the opening concert of the 2026 FIFA World Cup countdown series in Los Angeles — his latest appearance on a global stage that reaffirmed why, more than a decade after Dami Duro broke him nationally in 2012, he remains one of Afrobeats' most consistent and visible exports. With the Timeless album cycle winding down and "the journey to the throne begins" now announced as his new rallying cry, I Know Who I Be sets up what looks like a focused new chapter in his discography.
