Jidenna to feature Wizkid in New Song

 

Jidenna has confirmed that he is on course to work on a new song with Wizkid.

 

The Nigerian-born American singer is currently having his best career moments yet, after his single ‘Classic man’ became a hit and catapulted him into worldwide charts.

 

Jidenna recently shot an exclusive interview with media correspondent Raro Lae, and opened up to her about future plans.

 

These plans included a collaboration in the works with Nigerian Afrobeats superstar, Wizkid. In the video (scroll below to watch), Jidenna all but confirmed the planned project.

 

“I met a lot of people recently, one of them is Wizkid, so we definitely have something coming up.” Jidenna said.

 

The new song is yet to be recorded, but Jidenna is open to any location for the process, further revealing that the venue is yet to be decided.

 

“We travel a lot, so whether it’s L.A, or London, or Lagos, we’ll figure it out, I don’t know.” He explained further.
 

Jidenna recently named Wizkid as the  Nigerian act he is feeling at the moment.

 

 

 “I love his voice, I love his production team. I was just hanging out with them recently.” Jidenna told Billboard in a recent interview.

 

“I’m looking forward to what’s to come, and I love his catalog already." He further said.

 

Jidenna and Wizkid performed on stage at the Africkan Festival back in July, and as it stands now, a collaboration between both acts is most definitely a highly anticipated one.

 

Jidenna also further disclosed that he is influenced by Nigeria’s Highlife music which is the first music he ever listened to as a child.
