Daniel Regha floors Wizkid’s effort on Lungu Boy

Daniel Regha has slammed Asake’s song with Wzkid on his new album Lungu Boy, adding that he was more of a name than an artist now.

TheTalk.NG recalls reporting that Nigeria Afro-fusion music star Ololade Ahmed, widely known as Asake, premiered his third studio album on August 9, 2024.

The second track of the MMS project features award-winning star Wizkid, but Daniel Regha said his verse was a major flop.
