DJ Maphorisa, a co-producer of the ‘One dance’ hit song reveals that Wizkid and Drake still have songs in the works.
Drake’s “View from the 6” could be linked to inspiration from his hometown Canada but his recent releases taps from diverse sounds across the world.
The single, ‘One Dance’ which features Wizkid and Kyla, is built around African vibes provided by producers Noah “40” Shebib, Nineteen85, and DJ Maphorisa, a DJ and artist from Soshanguve, Pretoria.
In an interview with Genius, DJ Maphorisa said he was in Los Angeles two weeks ago working on Wizkid’s upcoming album when the opportunity to contribute to Drake’s potential song of the summer arose. According to the 28-year-old, born Themba Sekowe, after remixing Wizkid’s ‘Ojuelegba’ last summer, Drake collaborated with the Nigerian artist on ‘One Dance’ via email.
