SPECIAL FEATURE: WALE TALKS NEW SINGLE, HOW WIZKID INFLUENCED DRAKE'S CONTROLLA AND MORE

American born, Nigerian rapper Wale sat down with Ebro, Peter Rosenberg and Laura Stylez on Hot97 earlier today to talk about his new single “My PYT” and during the almost 37 minutes interview, Wale talks about how he knew Davido and Wizkid would eventually blow up.

He also mentions that he tried to get Wizkid signed to RocNation sometime ago and personally feels that Drake’s Controlla, a single off the Views Album was influenced by Wizkid.

Interesting observation that I didn’t notice, but do you think Controlla was actually influenced by Wizkid?

BREAKING NEWS: WIZKID CALLS WANDE COAL'S BLUFF IN A MUSICAL WAR OF WITS

Star Boy Records artiste Wizkid in a sheer war of wits has called Black Diamond Wande Coal’s bluff. As we all know, the world is waiting anxiously for both artistes to release their new albums anytime, though it is taking like forever with lots of postponement by both acts.

The seemingly insta-war pictures posted by both talented artistes shows Wande Coal alongside one of London’s finest producer Da Beat Freakz wherein he wrote “Black Diamond made some monster tracks”.

Wizkid on the other hand posted similar pictures with some of Nigeria’s finest producers Dokta Frabz, Shizzi and Samklef and wrote "Jam Jam Jamsss" and in a different picture showing him in the studio, he wrote “2 studio sessions in one night! Be scared of what I got coming”.

Now is this a coincidence or is their a musical war brewing between the two talents? Well time will tell as we await to hear from both of them.

MUSIC PREMIERE: BOOGIE DOWN - SAEON FT WIZKID

iCirculate's Saeon is an Afropop artist whose works have made it to BET, BBC1, MTVUK & world star hip hop.

Following the success of her song, "Bust my Brain" featuring General Pype, Saeon comes harder with a new single "Boogie Down" which features Wizkid. This brilliant piece of work is that it started with Saeon & Wizkid throwing funny lines at each other and upon hearing them Maleek Berry laced his magic on a beat to complement their melodies. It is safe to say this hit song will be embraced by the Nigerian majority.

This was definitely a brilliant union between the iCirculate & StarBoy camps. We officially present to you "Boogie Down" by Saeon featuring Wizkid. Produced by Maleek Berry.
