The two Afrobeat giants Wizzy and Burna have been the story the day with huge wins at the Grammys.
As we celebrate the achievements of these two giants we have decided to take a spin at the iconic songs Wizkid and Burna Boy have done together.
Almost 24hours after the 63rd Grammy Awards our giants were included in the list of winners, making Nigeria and Africa proud.
While Wizkid became the first Afrobeat artiste to win Grammys with his collabo with Beyoncé on her Brown Skin Girl in the category of Best Music Video, Burna on the other hand emerged as the winner for the category of Best Global Music Album with his “Twice As Tall” album.
For those who are not aware, these two are not just collaborating as their teaming can be dated as far back 2013.
While we enjoy their greatness and celebrate their win, let’s look at their collaborations.
Jah’s Love Is True
Here, Burna Boy featured Wizkid on his L.I.F.E 2013 album as the 18th track, out of the 19 tracks.
Being the first time the two would do a collaboration, not to exaggerate but they made magic.
Doing yourself a great deal will be to revisit this jam and acknowledge the creativity in their verses.

Single
Like Jah’s Love Is True, Burna also featured Wizkid in 2015 on his “On A Spaceship” album.
Likewise, the album housed 19 songs as his previous album, and “Single” was the 6th track.
Though Wizkid had more of a back-up, do yourself a favour and listen to these kings display their talents.
OOO
After two years, the stars decided to reunite and drop another banger, but just that they didn’t do it alone this time. Wizkid featured Burna Boy, Zingah, and Maphorisa in delivering this song.
“OOO” is a unique song with multiple talents flowing in each of their verses.
This is another song the stars collaborated together on. Stream and enjoy the throwback vibe!

Ginger
Fast forward to 2020, uniquely the two meet up again, more advanced, more brutal with their prowess, and of course, lyrically upgraded.
Here, Wizkid features Burna Boy on his “Made In Lagos” album on the popular track titled “Ginger“.
On a good account, this is still arguably the best of their collaborations so far with many award nominations and streams.
Not to exaggerate, but a listen too will prove my point!
