Wizkid is one of the finest star running the game right now, with his help Drake got his first No 1 Hot100 Billboard chart, Wizzy is just getting started. Top US rapper, Wale has opened up on Nigerian music with particular focus on Wizkid. In an interview with Factory 78, he said he tried to get Wizkid signed on to Jayz's Roc Nation recording label way before he became a global brand.
He also said he feels Drake copied Wizkid's style on his hit track on Views album, One Dance..
Wizkid is credited as a co-producer on the track so it could mean he wrote part of the lyrics..

I'm proud of Davido and Wizkid and Olamide. There is alot of dope artists coming out right now .I knew it was gonna get there. I mean,Nigeria got like a whole 60 % of the swag in Africa. I always knew .I remember bringing the idea of signing Wizkid to Roc nation to the guys out there .Like early on. It was way before this time. I knew it was gon get there. I got like 7 songs on the internet with him. If I had held on to him back then,it would have been a different story.
