Blaqbonez, a popular Nigerian rapper, has remarked about Wizkid and Tems’ song ‘Essence’ and its effect on Afrobeats.
According to him, Afrobeats gained popularity after Wizkid released ‘Essence’ with Tems in 2020.
Blaqbonez claimed in a recent interview with the American station KTLA: “Afrobeats took a massive leap when Wizkid dropped Essence and it went crazy. It just told the world Afrobeats is something you really have to watch.
“Crazy things are happening right now for Afrobeats. More talented artists are coming up.”
Wizkid recently slammed Afrobeats, stating that he does not want to be trapped into a specific genre.
Wizkid’s team has also referred to ‘Essence’ as an R&B song.
