In other news, Kanye West took to social media to express his thoughts on Wizkid and Tems‘ popular song ‘Essence.’
You might remember that Wizkid’s song Essence featuring Tems was nominated for two Grammy awards during the 64th ceremony, but it did not win either one.
On Sunday, September 4, 2022, Wizkid’s smash hit song “Essence,” which topped the charts all over the world, was dubbed the greatest song ever in a post by Kanye West on his social media platform.
Posting a screenshot of Wizkid’s Essence song with Tems, Kanye on his Instagram post, captioned the post with:
Best song in the history of music to date
Without delay, Wizkid reposted a screenshot of Kanye West’s acknowledgement on his Instagram story.
This comes a few days after Wizkid broke a new record by being the first African musician in history to achieve an unprecedented feat after his album ‘Made In Lagos’ bagged a US certification.
Wizkid’s ‘Made In Lagos‘ album was certified gold by the RIAA in the United States, making him the only African musician to receive this honour.
