Hold onto your headphones, Afrobeats fans! The music world just stopped spinning on its axis with the most unexpected, yet highly demanded, announcement of the year: Wizkid and Asake are releasing a joint Extended Play (EP) titled 'REAL (Vol. 1)' this December!
Forget the usual December singles—this is a full-on collaboration project from the Big Wiz and Mr. Money himself. The news, dropped during a surprise Apple Music takeover, instantly sent both the Wizkid FC and the Mr. Money Army into a viral frenzy.
The Chemistry We’ve All Been Waiting For
Wizkid and Asake have proven their synergy before. Tracks like "MMS" showed their effortless ability to fuse Wizkid's mellow, global-pop sound with Asake's infectious, Fuji-infused street-pop style. It's a blend of two sonic universes that creates a sound built for dance floors and global charts alike.
As Wizkid himself confirmed, the project will drop this December—a declaration that effectively makes them the undisputed sound kings of the high-demand 'Detty December' party season.
"Special announcement, 2025 Mr. Money [and] Big Wiz project. It's called REAL, and it drops this December. For the people. One time, Vol. 1,” – Wizkid, during the announcement.
Why This EP is a Strategic Masterpiece
The timing is everything. This is not just a gift to the fans; it is a tactical move that guarantees market domination:
The New Sound of Celebration: Every club, every event, every turn-up this holiday season will be commanded by this EP. It is the guaranteed soundtrack for every diaspora traveler coming home and every Lagos nightlife enthusiast.
Unbeatable Streaming Power: By combining the streaming firepower of two of Africa's biggest artists, 'REAL (Vol. 1)' is set to smash regional and global streaming records, reinforcing Afrobeats' position on the world stage.
The "Real" Connection: Asake hinted that the project is rooted in a genuine, "real" relationship, suggesting the music will carry an authentic depth that goes beyond a casual feature. DJ Tunez has already teased a snippet of a track, "Jogodo," showcasing Asake’s smooth Yoruba vocals over a mellow, rhythmic beat, confirming the unique sonic territory they are exploring.
This is the collaboration the culture demanded, and it's coming just in time to close out the year with a historic, high-octane bang. Get ready to clear your playlists—this one is going to be REAL! 🚀
