Nigerian mega star Wizkid has secured another global win through his successful track, ‘Essence’, which featured sultry songstress, Tems.
TIME, an acclaimed American news magazine, has released its list for the ‘Best Songs of 2021’, with Wizkid’s ‘Essence’ as the second on the list that housed 10 songs.
The platform said “Wizkid’s sultry ‘Essence’ was already a standout track on his 2020 album, Made in Lagos, thanks to a dulcet assist from fellow Nigerian artist Tems.”
“The Afrobeats star’s hit became ubiquitous in 2021, after he released a remix of featuring Justin Bieber alongside Tems. The song’s seductive beat and lush vocals make it one of the most easy, luxurious sonic experiences of the year, an ode to longing, to lust, and yes, to love,” it further stipulated.
