A couple of months ago, Efya was pictured in a studio with Wizkid in California. Most people thought they were just making music together, not knowing this bombshell was in the pipeline.
Wizkid also teased a remix to Mr Eazi‘s hit single “Skin Tight” on Snapchat sometime in April. Even with that, no one saw this coming.
We’ve been getting lots of surprises in the music industry lately…
Let’s hope this megadeal is the start of a new movement that’ll take Nigerian and Ghanaian music to new heights.
