Popular Nigerian rapper, Blaqbonez, has spoken about the impact 'Essence' by Wizkid and Tems made on Afrobeats.

According to him, Afrobeats skyrocketed in popularity after Wizkid released ‘Essence’ featuring Tems in 2020.

During a recent interview with American outlet KTLA, Blaqbonez stated: “Afrobeats took a massive leap when Wizkid dropped Essence and it went crazy. It just told the world Afrobeats is something you really have to watch.

“Crazy things are happening right now for Afrobeats. More talented artists are coming up.”


Recall that Wizkid recently denounced Afrobeats, saying he does not wish to be boxed into any particular genre.

Wizkid’s team has also described ‘Essence’ as an R&B song.
