How Drake, Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys Made Wizkid King

Wizkid is undoubtedly becoming Nigeria’s most recognised musician, internationally of course, after Fela and Femi Kuti…in recent times.

His sudden rise to international fame is courtesy 3 awesome events,

1. Drake’s unsolicited remix of Wizzy’s ‘Ojuelegba’ – the two have never even met!

3. Alicia Keys dancing to Wizzy’s ‘Ojuelegba’ and ‘Caro’, and we just can’t stop talking about it. That and how hot she looked…whew!

 

This song makes me happy??? #goodvibes @wizkidayo ????
