Ne-yo Reveals He Would Love To Collaborate With Wizkid, Burna Boy, Others, As He Fails To Mention Davido
American singer and songwriter, Ne-Yo has stated his desire to work with Nigerian musicians such as Wizkid, Burna Boy, Tems, and Ckay.
Ne-Yo mentioned this during a press conference with Flytime Music on Wednesday, the same night he was due to headline the music festival.
He said at the conference that he had no idea he had such a large following in Lagos.
“I remember being pleasantly surprised the first time I came to Lagos, Nigeria. I genuinely had no idea that I had such an amazing fan base here,” he said.
The Miss Independent crooner then talked about the Nigerian style of music, afrobeats, and his intention to delve into the genre.
He said,
“For me to sit with producers and go and be like, ‘Let’s do some afrobeat today’, I’ll feel like an imposter.
“If I want to get into it, I want to be invited by an artiste who’s already there. Let me feature on an artiste who’s already there or I get an artiste who’s already there to feature on something of mine, so that’s authentic and real.
“I’ll love to collaborate with some African artistes. Wizkid is on the list, Tems is on the list, Burna Boy is on the list, and Ckay is on the list.
“I’m just waiting on a phone call basically. I don’t have anybody’s number for me to call. I’m waiting for them to call me.”
