Nigerian Afrobeats stars Wizkid and Asake have dropped their highly anticipated collaborative single “Jogodo,” released on January 15, 2026. The track serves as the first single from their forthcoming joint EP, REAL, Vol. 1.
“Jogodo” features Wizkid’s smooth, melodic delivery paired with Asake’s energetic, street-inspired style. The song is performed in Nigerian Pidgin and incorporates pulsing percussion, bold brass arrangements, and a soulful groove. It explores themes of intoxication, freedom, and late-night vibes, with the artists trading verses in a natural, conversational flow that underscores their shared cultural roots and mutual respect.
The collaboration builds on their previous work, including Asake’s “MMS” featuring Wizkid from the 2024 album Lungu Boy, which earned Grammy nominations. “Jogodo” marks Asake’s first new release following his Red Bull Symphonic performance in the United States.
Announced during an Apple Music session in late 2025, REAL, Vol. 1 represents the duo’s first full joint project. The EP has already generated massive anticipation, with fans eager to hear how their styles will blend across a full body of work.
The release of “Jogodo” has sparked widespread excitement on social media and streaming platforms, as listeners praise the chemistry between the two superstars. The track further highlights Afrobeats’ growing global influence and the power of collaboration in pushing the genre forward.
With this release, Wizkid and Asake continue to solidify their positions as leaders in contemporary African music, while setting the stage for what promises to be one of the most talked-about projects of the year.
