Nigerian-American rapper Wale has confirmed his involvement in the career of Nigerian Afrobeats musician Wizkid.

During a livestream with Carter Efe, Wale revealed that he had a crucial role in Wizkid’s career, specifically introducing him to an international audience.

He also revealed that he once accommodated the singer, whom he referred to as his “boy” in Beverly Hills, California.

“I have been following Nigerian music, there are so many Nigerian artists that I like listening to. I don’t know some of them but I like listening to their music.

“There are some I know personally like Wizkid. Me and Wizkid have been cool for almost 10 years now. I remember taking him to his first BET Awards show.

“That is my boy. I once accommodated him at Beverly Hills for a whole summer. We were just writing music. We made a lot of songs together like ‘Drop for me’,” he explained.
