Wizkid’s hit single ‘Ojuelegba’ from his second album ‘Ayo’, released on September 17, 2014, is celebrating its 10th anniversary. The track, produced by Legendury Beatz, reflects Wizkid’s rise to fame, starting from Lagos’ Ojuelegba area.
The song’s blend of Pidgin English and Yoruba, along with its hopeful and grateful message, resonated with many listeners. The music video, directed by Clarence Peters, features Wizkid travelling through Ojuelegba in Lagos yellow buses and visiting local landmarks.
‘Ojuelegba’ reached international audiences, catching the attention of British-Nigerian rapper Skepta and Canadian rapper Drake, who contributed to an unofficial remix. This exposure played a significant role in Wizkid’s global success, leading to his collaboration with Drake on the 2015 hit “One Dance,” which further popularized Afrobeats worldwide.
As ‘Ojuelegba’ turns 10, it remains a beloved classic in the Nigerian music scene. Fans have taken to social media to celebrate.
