When an artist features Wizkid, it does something to their steeze; at least in my eyes.
The clout and numbers aside, there’s something a Wizkid validation/co-sign does to your steeze.
Artists that ensure they stay on theme when writing their feature verses deserve a special place in heaven cos some of you just sing, nothing concern you with wetin the original artist dey talk.
I have a theory that snippet culture is one of the reasons the excitement around Afrobeats has dwindled (obviously, there are several other factors).
First off, social media and the internet have already made music and celebrities very accessible.
Why make it worse by posting

Not in a curated way that clearly points to a project, but in a way that screams, “I just want to spark joy in the hearts of my fans.”
He’s the most exciting Afrobeats artist right
