Afrobeats giants Wizkid and Asake have officially unveiled the first installment of their joint project, Real EP Vol. 1.
Opening the EP is “Turbulence,” a smooth Afrobeats introduction that immediately draws listeners into the project’s message.
On the track, Wizkid and Asake reflect on success, pressure, and the choice to remain unbothered despite life’s challenges.
The lyrics highlight resilience, gratitude to God, and the importance of minding one’s business while navigating fame and negativity. As the EP’s opening record, Turbulence sets a confident tone of growth, elevation, and calm, even in the midst of turbulence.
