The question running on everyone’s mind currently is why did Drake not show up for Wizkid’s new musical video titled ‘Come Closer’. If you could recall last year, drake featured Wizkid in a song titled ‘One Dance’,which broke every possible streaming records in the process With over a billion streams, the highest any artist has ever pulled off in the streaming age.
Well i guess Drake featuring in ‘Come Closer’ was a way of repaying Wizkid for his favour on ‘One Dance’. The ‘One Dance’ music video which was shot in Africa (Cape Town, South Africa), had Wizkid missing from the set, with no official reason shared with the public.
Today,Wizkid released the video to ‘Come Closer’ featuring drake and it has no sign of the pop star, In the video Wizkid held down the proceedings alone, surrounded by African women who rocked traditional fabrics woven into urban wears. Drake’s absence was clearly obvious as his verse had no one to mime it., except Wizkid, who handled situation very well.
A fan took to his twitter handle to remind Nigerians that Wizkid also did not show up in the video of ‘One Dance’ by Drake..So we shouldn’t be angry if Drake also didn’t show up in his video.
Wizkid has responded to his fans, saying : “Had a family emergency during ‘One Dance’ video shoot, and Drake was on tour when we did ‘Come Closer’. No bad blood, one love still” .The tweet was quickly deleted.
