Wizkid is a global star. The Afropop icon has dominated the music scene for over a decade, and even now, he’s showing no signs of slowing down. In 2025, he’s been on a feature run that’s both unexpected and exciting, reminding us how much weight his name still carries in any collaboration.
When he teamed up with rapper and Street-Hop king Olamide on “Kai!” in April, ahead of Olamide’s self-titled album “Olamide”, it felt like a rare link-up between two giants. But just when fans thought that was their one big moment for the year, Olamide surprised everyone by dropping “Billionaire Club”, a heavy-hitting record featuring UK-Nigerian rapper Darkoo, which further extended Wizkid’s impressive feature streak.
Since then, he’s collaborated with a range of artists, including Ayra Starr, Fola, Tyla, Maleek Berry, and even global EDM heavyweight David Guetta.
Olamide – “KAI!” ft. Wizkid
Ahead of his self-titled album, Olamide, the YBNL boss reunited with longtime collaborator Wizkid on “Kai!”, a slick, mid-tempo record laced with jazzy horns and grown-man swagger. Olamide sets the tone with laid-back confidence: “Nothing is carved in stone / I’m feeling good / Came in a Porsche, left in a Lambo.”
But it’s Wizkid’s entry that brings an extra layer of finesse, gliding in with his signature chill and polished delivery. When he sings, “Na money dey stop long talk / Diamonds every new week,” he complements the vibe by adding luxury, poise, and that effortless Starboy flow the track didn’t know it needed.
Tyla – “Dynamite” ft. Wizkid
Featured on WWP, Tyla’s newly released four-pack of songs, “Dynamite” is a smooth, sensual track built on a bouncy bassline and syncopated drums. Although it was recorded back in 2022 — as Tyla revealed in an interview with Capital Xtra — the track feels timeless, thanks to the seamless blend of both artists’ vocals.
Wizkid slips into the soundscape with his usual finesse, matching Tyla’s sultriness bar for bar. His understated delivery brings a subtle tension and allure, effortlessly complementing Tyla’s soft-spoken energy and helping transform “Dynamite” into a breezy, late-night anthem with global appeal.
David Guetta & A7S – “Lighter” ft. Wizkid
A global summer anthem in every sense, “Lighter” unites David Guetta, A7S, and Wizkid in a feel-good collaboration that blends dance-pop energy with Afro-inspired rhythm. While Guetta and A7S bring their signature festival-ready bounce, it’s Wizkid who injects the track with soul and groove.
His smooth, melodic delivery adds a layer of warmth and swagger, anchoring the production in unmistakable Afropop flow. With his effortlessly breezy vocals, Wizkid rides the beat and elevates “Lighter” from a standard EDM track to a cross-continental vibe that’s built for sunlit dances.
DJ Tunez – “One Condition” ft. Wizkid & Fola
Currently the No. 1 song in Nigeria and fueling a viral TikTok dance, “One Condition” is a smooth, energetic record that strikes a perfect balance between percussive bounce and melodic finesse. Produced by DJ Tunez, the track thrives on layered rhythms, crisp bass drops, and infectious keys.
Wizkid brings his signature melodic fluidity, gliding effortlessly over the beat and adding a layer of cool that’s impossible to ignore.
Olamide – “Billionaire Club” ft. Wizkid & Darkoo
Appearing as the second Wizkid-assisted track on Olamide’s “Olamide” album, “Billionaire Club” finds the Starboy in sharper form, delivering what might be his most inspired verse of the year. Over a smooth, instrument-rich production laced with bass guitar, violin, and an understated groove, he offers an elite-level flex on luxury, status, and finesse.
The track’s chorus, carried by blended vocals from all three artists, gives it an anthemic, almost ceremonial feel. But it’s his razor-sharp verse that cuts through most: assertive, magnetic, and arguably a strong contender for the best verse of 2025 so far.
Maleek Berry – “Situation” ft. Wizkid
Off Maleek Berry’s 2025 album “If Only Love Was Enough”, “Situation” marks a warm reunion between the producer-artist and his longtime collaborator Wizkid, a pairing that has consistently delivered magic over the years.
The track is built on smooth vocals, infectious grooves, and pristine production, but it’s their chemistry that truly shines through. StarBoy slides in with his laid-back cadence, adding a touch of nostalgia. Together, they craft a standout moment that nods to their past successes and also highlights just how far they’ve both evolved sonically.
Gunna – “Forever Be Mine” ft. Wizkid
Teased ahead of Gunna’s “The Last Wun” album, “Forever Be Mine” stands out as a smooth blend of trap and Afropop sensibilities, and a brilliant showcase of Wizkid’s versatility. Known for his smooth, mid-tempo delivery, he switches gears here, tapping into Gunna’s sonic world with a trap-inspired flow that glides effortlessly over the moody beat.
Rather than bend the song to fit his style, he meets the rhythm head-on, matching the cadence, mood, and bounce with precision. It’s an unexpected turn that not only complements Gunna’s energy but also reaffirms just how shape-shifting Wizkid can be when the moment calls.
