Two days ago, Drake dropped two singles, ‘Pop style’ featuring
Kanye West and Jay Z, and ‘One dance’ featuring Wizkid andKyla. On 'One
Dance,' the 6 God gets assists from Wizkid, who he worked with last year, and
Kyla, sampling the Crazy Cousinz remix of her
song, 'Do You Mind'. This raises the bar a lot higher for the star
pop singer helping to improve his brand visibility. The tune 'One
dance' features production byNinteen85 with
co-production credits by 40.
Wizkid already featured Drake in a remix to his 'Ojuelegba'
fan favourite and award-winning song.
The single 'One dance' is off Drake's
forthcoming album, following his successful "What a time to be
alive" released in 2015.
The collaboration was said to have come about thanks to
Skepta, a friend of Wizkid, who introduced the song to Drake during a Wireless
Music Festival held in London.
The crossover tune has gone on to have other covers
and refixes with top artistes such as Sarkodie.
The pop singer has had other international collaborations
preceding this one with Drake. He has worked with Grammy winner Angelique Kidjo, Ty Dolla $ign, and recorded a hook
with Coldplay’s Chris Martin for
pop star Rihanna. A
performance with Chris Brown was in the works also in South Africa at the ‘X
Tour’, so was another recording with UK star Tinie Tempah, and Norwegian pop icons Nico & Vinz. The 'Baba nla' singer is also likely to put
out new music with American- Nigerian singer Jidenna.
Drake also has released another single titled 'Pop style'
featuring Jay-Z and Kanye West.
