Jorja Smith Feat Wizkid -Alive



UK Rnb singer Jorja Smith collabs with Wizkid to drop the smooth and exhilarating track 'Alive' which is featured on her latest studio Album ‘What are the the ODDs’.   Once again Big Wizzy proves to us why he deserves to wear the crown as the prince of Afrobeats, as he blends his vocals seamlessly with Jorja's to produce this wonderful track.

Yes o Burna Boy may be riding high after featuring on Shakira’s massive world cup hit ‘Dai Dai’ but I think Wizzy has got this one locked down and more than matches him with this collab.


Feel free to drop your comments on both tracks’ which one is the best - Jorja Smith’s ‘Alive' ft WizKid or Shakira - ‘Dai Dai’ ft Burna Boy. Then again maybe you love both tracks.

The Amazing Story Of Wizkid From The Rough Streets Of Lagos To Global Stardom



Wizkid's Early Hustle 
Wizkid's story is the ultimate rags to riches trajectory, born Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun in Ojuelegba a vibrant  district of Surulere in Lagos Nigeria he went from singing in his local church choir to becoming one of the most streamed artistes in global music history. 

At just 11 years old the young Ayodeji formed a group called the Glorious Five with a few friends. He was a constant presence in the Lagos studio scene, where he slowly gained a reputation for his hard work and tireless dedication, eventually catching the eye of established Nigerian music artiste and actor Banky W who signed him to his record label Empire Mates Entertainment in 2009.



Wizkid’s  first major breakthrough came a year later in 2010 when he released the song "Holla at Your Boy". which instantly became a smash hit on the Nigerian Music scene.  


His debut Album 'Superstar' which he dropped the following year in 2011 catapulted him to superstar status and recognition across Africa as a leading exponent of Afrobeats music which was gaining rapid popularity around the world. 



Global Recognition

Always hungry for a broader audience, Wizkid began focusing on international collaborations, this strategy paid off in 2016 when he co-wrote and featured on Drake's massive hit "One Dance." 


The track topped the charts worldwide in 15 countries and earned Wizkid a place in the Guinness World Records as the first Afrobeats artiste to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100. exposing Wizkid and Afrobeats music to audiences in the United States and global entertainment markets around the world.


The Reign Of Big Wizzy

The single gained international attention and recognition to become the first Nigerian hit single to chart on the Billboard Hot 100.    A further hugely successful remix of 'Essence' this time in collaboration with Canadian R&B star Justin Bieber solidified his status as an international icon.

Sold Out Concerts

In 2021 Wizkid became the first Afrobeats artiste to sell out the 02 Arena in London UK with his concerts attracting an audience of 5.2 million fans over 5 nights. He has continued to perform to massive crowds around the world from the O2 Arena, to Glastonbury and Madison Square Garden in the U.S.
