Wizkid nominated as a featured artiste and as a producer on Drake’s VIEWS album at the 59th Grammy Awards for ‘Album of the Year’.
Yes!! he was a prominent contributor on the lead single, ‘One Dance’, where he is nominated as a guest artiste, and also as a producer.
Although it was originally presented to the artist alone, the award is now presented to the main artist, the featured artist(s), the producer, the engineer and/or mixer and the mastering engineer.
If this award is won by Drake, Wizkid will be going home with two gongs. For production and guest feature on the album.
Away from this, the year 2016 has also been remarkable for Wizkid, amongst other accomplishments, he has sold out stadiums all over Africa and Europe during his world tour, he’s been on tour with Chris Brown, featured on several international magazines including Vogue, he’s wrapping up the release of a new album, he signed three of Ghana’s biggest acts to his international label, won the African Artiste of the Year Award at the 17th Ghana Music Awards.
We may very well congratulate Wizkid in advance for what is to come.
