🦅 Afrobeats Takeover! Wizkid and Asake Finally Release 'REAL, Vol. 1'—See the Reactions and Top Tracks!


 

The wait is finally over! After weeks of teasing, broken promises, and social media meltdowns, the two kings of the game—Wizkid and Asake—have officially blessed our ears with their joint EP, 'REAL, Vol. 1.'

This isn't just a collaboration; it’s a cultural shift. Dropping under Starboy Entertainment and YBNL/EMPIRE, this 4-track project is already shattering every streaming record in the book.

The Tracklist: 4 Songs, No Skips

The EP is compact, intentional, and dangerously addictive. Produced largely by the hitmaker Magicsticks, the project features:

  1. Turbulence (The moody, philosophical opener)

  2. Jogodo (The record-breaking lead single)

  3. Iskolodo (The experimental, groovy vibe)

  4. Alaye (The high-energy Lagos anthem)

"Who Carried?" – The Great Fan Debate

As expected, Nigerian Twitter (X) and TikTok are currently a battlefield. While Wizkid FC is praising the "Starboy's" effortless, minimalist flow, Asake’s "Ololade" fans are arguing that his infectious energy and street-hop melodies gave the project its soul.

"Wizkid just showed why he is the blueprint. He didn't even try, yet he dominated," one fan wrote.

A rival fan countered: "Without Asake's 'Alaye' energy, this EP would just be a lullaby. Mr. Money carried!"

Record-Breaking Numbers

The lead single, "Jogodo," already made history by pulling over 1.3 million streams on Spotify Nigeria in just 24 hours—the highest for any duo in African history. The EP itself hit #1 on Apple Music in less than 5 hours.

Whether you're a fan of Wizkid's "Morayo" era or Asake's "Lungu Boy" vibes, 'REAL, Vol. 1' proves that when two giants collide, the earth shakes.

🎧 Our Top Pick:

If you only have time for one song, go straight to "Iskolodo." The South American/Caribbean influence mixed with heavy Afrobeats percussion is something we haven't heard before.
