I Tried To Get Wizkid In Roc Nation & Drake Copied Wizkid In "One Dance" --Wale by JAYTUNEZ(m): 4:36pm On May 27, 2016 |
Top Nigerian/US rapper, Wale has opened up on Nigerian music with particular focus on Wizkid. In an interview with Factory 78, he said he tried to get Wizkid signed on to Roc Nation way before he became a global brand. He also said he feels Drake copied Wizkid's style on his hit track on Views album, One Dance.. Wizkid is credited as a co-producer on the track so it could mean he wrote part of the lyrics.. Wale said; I would like to hear more of Wizkid.I would like to hear more of Wizkid on one dance.I could hear more control.It sounds like Wizkid's song.He sounded like Wizkid on that song.The lyrics, the style everything,.I mean he is a phenomenal writer but I just feel like he sounds like Wizkid on that song.. On Nigerian music,he said I'm proud of Davido and Wizkid and Olamide. There is alot of dope artists coming out right now . .I knew it was gonna get there. I mean,Nigeria got like a whole 60 % of the swag in Africa. I always knew .I remember bringing the idea of signing Wizkid to Roc nation to the guys out there .Like early on. It was way before this time. I knew it was gon get there. I got like 7 songs on the internet with him. If I had held on to him back then,it would have been a different story. http://www.tunezmediablog.com/2016/05/i-tried-to-get-wizkid-into-roc-nation.html?m=1 16 Likes 4 Shares

vargasvictory:Wale.....is not everybody. Wiz kid is not on wale level I beg. Wale is a lyrical genius. He's clearly just trying to promote Wizkid like Akon is doing with P Square. 33 Likes 2 Shares |

rokiatu: Ma'am pipe down I know who Wale is, and also the fact Wizkid is not on his level I'm just saying based on the fact that if he had wanted to sign him to Roc Nation or still he wants to, he should push for it and spare US all the big big talk 7 Likes |

Hahahahaha Keep lying to yourself, maybe you will be consoled. 9ice: Famous for 2 years ONLY . Olu Maintain: Famous for 1 and half years ONLY. Dagrin: Famous for a year till he joined cult and.... Childish Davido: Famous for his background and never for his music. Wizkid: the only true talented Afenifere musician. Burna boy: Noise maker. Korede: About to marry Derenle. D'banj: dead career. Wande Coal: dead and buried. Cabassa: dead, buried and forgotten. Paul Play Dairo: dead and exhumed. Skeleton now in lab for experiments. Una no dey last. Una no dey dey focused. Respect to Wizkid though, the only Afenifere artiste I respect. Holla atcha boy! Your musicians don't last for up to 3 years unless they are with Don Jazzy. Hihihihihi.

pinkyliceous: Jealousy go kill you - when was the last time any of those you mentioned had a hit? Besides when Wale came to Nigeria, did M.I show him love? Did Phyno, Flavor, PSquare and Dumb Jazzy show him love? So why should he give them a shout out? Mumu oshi - nothing dey dat your ugly head walahi - empty skull And this mumu way below this page says PSQUARE are the greatest African artist? Say what??!!!!!!!!!!!! PSQUARE that jacked USHER'S swag and dance move and everything. To be the GREATEST you have to be original. Psquare are NOT original and hence are not even close to great not to talk of greatest. YOU CANNOT COPY COPY AN AMERICAN ARTIST TO BECOME THE GREATEST AFRICAN ARTIST - GOD FORBID. 32 Likes 1 Share |

I don't know why they never like to see others up there except their own. Don Jazzy has been fair to them but if it were the other way round they would have brought in tribalism. proeast: 2 Likes |
