Afrobeats enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting a potential joint album from Nigerian music stars CKay and Olamide. The anticipation spiked following their recent collaboration on the hit track “Wahala.”

This isn’t their initial collaboration. CKay recently teamed up with Olamide on the catchy track “Wahala,” marking their second project together. Previously, Olamide featured CKay on a song from his 2023 album “Unruly.”
“Wahala” has been incredibly well-received, blending CKay’s distinctive emo-pop style with the vibrant beats of Afrobeats. The song has already amassed over 4 million streams on Spotify.
This upcoming project might signal Olamide’s comeback from what seemed like a retirement tease following his last album. For fans eagerly anticipating new music from the rapper, this would be a significant development. Moreover, it aligns perfectly with the rising trend of collaborative ventures in Afrobeats.
Lately, we’ve witnessed fruitful collaborations such as Ruger & BNXN’s. Given their compatibility, a joint project from CKay and Olamide is bound to generate comparable excitement.
