After Midnight, too, is traditionally a time when the feelings of love and lust are thought to be at their peak, and Gyakie’s album is…

The African ‘It Girls’ love a Wizkid feature, and it’s not difficult to see why. With the smooth, melodic variation of Afro-pop which he has embodied since 2017’s Sounds From The Other Side, Wizkid is definitely the “singer” of the Big 3. The explicit, soft sensuality…
