Wizkid And Asake Tease New Joint Project

Wizkid and Asake have confirmed they’re teaming up for a joint project titled REAL (Vol. 1), a move that’s already sending shockwaves through the Afrobeats world and setting the tone for what could be the season’s biggest drop.

The announcement came through during a takeover on Apple Music Radio on December 5, 2025. The project, REAL Vol. 1 wasn’t just casually teased, the duo co-hosted the show and delivered the news themselves, signalling this is much more than a typical collaboration; it may be the start of a series.

For both artists, the collaboration represents something deeper than just musical synergy. Wizkid, who is globally recognised as a leading light of Afrobeats, brings his polished, internationally-flavoured sound. Asake, on the other hand, brings a high-energy blend of Afrobeats, Amapiano, and street-pop, a combination that has turned him into one of the genre’s most consistent hitmakers. Their chemistry is not new: Asake once revealed that Wizkid was one of his musical inspirations, and their previous collaborations, including the hit “MMS” off Asake’s 2024 album, were met with widespread acclaim.

While the announcement didn’t include a full tracklist or official release date, one track, titled “Jogodo,” has already been teased, and early reactions suggest it could be a party anthem designed to dominate clubs, playlists and street parties alike.

The reaction across social media and music-freak communities has been explosive. Fans and insiders alike are calling REAL Vol. 1 a potential cultural milestone, a project that might not only dominate charts but also shape the vibe of the season.

Given Wizkid’s global reach and Asake’s current momentum, REAL Vol. 1 stands poised to become one of the most significant collaborative releases in Afrobeats history. Whether it’s a single EP or the first in a series, one thing is already clear: listeners are eagerly waiting.
