]There hits amongst Africans bro, Wizkid is the afrobeat equivalent to Drake in Africa and amongst balcks in the Uk.

All them tunes are hits including the one with Drake which was already big before Drake jumped on it.

Something like Holiday just came out and is far from what I'd call a hit.

And you are stretching the Wizkid-Drake comparison. Wiz is big but Afrobeats artist don't move units, just like Dancehall artist. If I gave the title of Afrobeat Drake to anyone, it'd be Davido.

Youre' right but its still a hit in regards to the fact that Wizkid is been played constantly on a continent of more than a billion people when taking into consideration those abroad, and a large percentage of those black folk will know who Wizkid is and have listened to those songs posted.

that's obvious why would u let a random emerging artist get feature credit on a star artist's single

it diminishes the star power of the song

u would only do that as a deal to get the song

Wizkid isn't a random emerging artist though, in fact has been in studio with rappers like Jeezy and Game well before this and is a star in his own right
