Popular Nigerian rapper, Olamide aka Baddo has named Grammy-winning singer, Wizkid as the greatest Afrobeats artist after the late pioneer, Fela Kuti.
The rapper spoke while reminiscing his multiple collaborations with Wizkid at a recent press conference in Canada.
“I am blessed to have collaborated with Wizkid on multiple occasions. You know Wizkid is the greatest Afrobeats artist ever after Fela,” he expressed.
