The Nigerian music industry is buzzing with excitement as two of its biggest icons, Olamide and Wizkid, were recently spotted in the studio together. This unexpected link-up has sent fans into a frenzy, anticipating yet another legendary collaboration between the YBNL boss and Starboy himself.
Over the years, Olamide and Wizkid have delivered timeless hits together. From Omo to Shan in 2011 to Kana in 2018, their chemistry has always resulted in chart-topping records. Now, with both artists evolving and pushing boundaries in their recent projects, this latest studio session promises something truly special.
Both artists have been actively shaping the soundscape of Nigerian music with their latest releases.
Olamide, the ever-evolving hitmaker, dropped his EP Ikigai in June 2024, further proving his ability to blend street-hop with soulful, introspective sounds. His last full-length album, Unruly (2023), was a testament to his prowess as an artist, and fans have eagerly been waiting for his next major move.
Wizkid, on the other hand, made waves in 2024 with his highly anticipated album Morayo. The project showcased a new level of depth and artistry, featuring a mix of classic Afrobeats, R&B, and soulful melodies. With standout tracks that dominated the charts and reaffirmed his status as an Afrobeats king, Morayo reminded everyone why Wizkid remains one of Africa’s biggest musical exports.
With Olamide’s street-savvy lyricism and Wizkid’s smooth, genre-blending finesse, this upcoming collaboration could take any form; energetic street anthem, mellow Afrobeat jam, or something entirely unexpected. Given their history, fans can be sure that whatever they’re cooking up will be nothing short of a hit.
While neither artist has confirmed an official release date, the anticipation is already sky-high. An Olamide and Wizkid record is always a cultural moment, and this one is shaping up to be no different.
Stay tuned for more updates because when these two legends link up, history is made!
