Yea you read that right!
Wizkid’s first Grammy will not be for his own song, but for a song he contributed immensely to.

The song, ‘One Dance’
by Drake featuring Kyla and Wizkid in our books and by our calculations has an 86% chance of winning a Grammy award.

To start with, the song was released in April 2016, which means it clearly falls into the Grammy eligibility period which has been announced as October 1, 2015 to September 30, 2016.

Now let’s talk about the huge feats the song has recorded so far
According to Billboard, the single racked up 4.67 million streams in one week and pulled about 3,000 combined chart sales.

The song set a new record, becoming the longest-running No. 1 single in U.K.’s digital era, as at now, the song has spent 11 straight weeks on the top of the Billboard chart.

As of June 16, 2016, ‘One Dance’ has sold 1,280,141 copies in the United States.

Away from this, the year 2016 has also been remarkable for Wizkid, amongst other accomplishments, he has sold out stadiums all over Africa and Europe during his world tour, he’s been on tour withChris Brown, featured on severalinternational magazines including Vogue, he’s wrapping up the release of a new album, hesigned three of Ghana’s biggest actsto his international label, won the African Artiste of the Year Award at the 17th Ghana Music Awards.

We may very well congratulate Wizkid in advance for what is to come.
