Henson, the glue still holding that show together, took to Instagram to express her love forDavido’s latest single, “How Long”, with Tinashe.ANYBODY who knows me know I LOVE MUSIC!!!especially WORLD MUSIC!!! Thank you @tymwallacehair for turning me on to another heater!!!A photo posted by taraji p henson (@tarajiphenson) onOct 30, 2016 at 2:01pm PDTDavido – not one to carry last  – quickly took to Instagram and Twitter to thank Taraji and ask for a chance to bring “that African heat” to an episode of the show – and we already know that Cookie Lyon always gets what she wants.With the hype surrounding Empire not anywhere as strong as it was in it’s debut season, injecting the infinitely-hyper Davido could be just the jolt its lacklustre third season needs.Big ups@TherealTaraji.. LET ME BRING THAT AFRICAN HEAT TO EMPIRE!! ONE EPISODE IS COOL FOR ME LOLpic.twitter.com/aT79k0mnOl— Davido (@iam_Davido)October 31, 2016
