5 Reasons Why Wizkid’s Feature on Drake’s ‘One Dance’ Isn’t Such A Big Deal

When I heard Drake featured Wizkid on his new song ‘One Dance’, I was super excited for three reasons.

1. Cos I’m a Nigerian and I like to famz the success of anyone who makes us look good.
2. Cos I expected that with Drake and Wizzy’s ‘Ojuelegba’ history, it was going to be an amazing collaboration
3. Of course, I was genuinely excited for Wizkid too.

So you can imagine my genuine disappointment when I listened to the song and it was ‘blehh’.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great jam, for Drake…But what happened to Wizkid, I couldn’t even hear his breath on the song, much less his voice. It was like Kanye featuring D’banj all over again.

Now here’s why we shouldn’t celebrate this collabo, it ain’t a big deal in my opinion and according to Nigerian twitter, for these reasons…

1. We could barely hear Wizkid.

2.  Which made him look stupid in front of his haters.

4. They even dragged innocent Dbanj into the matter.

5.  Which I’m sure broke Wizkid’s heart.
