'Fall' is the second single from Davido's second studio album 'A Good Time' that was released in 2019.
The single has already been certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Music Canada.

The video starts with Davido appearing to be in a heated argument with his lover before he exits a Rolls-Royce after the argument and spends the rest of the video daydreaming about being with a ballerina from behind a glass window.
According to Toye Sokunbi of Native magazine, the 'Fall' music video "is consistent with his (Davido's) lyrics that he no longer wants to be a player, so it comes as no surprise that he is seen at the end of the video, apparently brushing off the temptation of being with someone else".
