The project is titled REAL (Vol. 1), and it is set to be released this December. The timing is strategic. It coincides with the festive season, a period famously known as “Detty December,” which can only mean one thing: non-stop partying!
The world recently got a first glimpse when Wizkid and Asake featured on Apple Music 1. The duo featured on a show hosted by DJ Tunez. As you know, Tunez is Wizkid’s official DJ, and an integral figure in the Starboy camp.
The two Afrobeats superstars previewed a new track called ‘Jogodo’. The beat is heavy, and it swiftly commands attention. It sounds like an instant club anthem, blending Wizkid’s smooth delivery with Asake’s high energy.
The announcement of the joint EP has sent shockwaves through the industry. Fans on social media went wild as snippets of the song are already trending.
Collaborations have always been the fastest way to grow in any industry home and abroad, even the biggest rapper in the world showed us.
The Wizkid-Asake project is not just business. It originates from genuine friendship. Asake opened up during the broadcast, speaking candidly about Wizkid.
Mr Money described their relationship as “real.” He said it is “deep,” and it goes beyond just making music.
“In our relationship, we are so close, so real. We don’t share too much. It’s December, so everyone is going to be happy with it. This is deeper than just making music, this is greatness itself,” Asake said.
