Okayafrica's Top 15 Songs of 2015

Wizkid "Ojuelegba Remix" Feat. Drake & Skepta

"Ojuelegba (Remix)" Artwork via Soundcloud.

Wizkid’s “Ojuelegba,” was already a certified hit after dropping last year as part of his excellent sophomore album Ayo. Inspired by the Nigerian star’s “soujourn” around Lagos’ iconic Ojuelegba neighborhood, the Legendury Beatz-produced track lured us in with its uplifting piano progression and Wizkid’s stories about the struggle.

At the peak of summer 2015, Drake and UK grime MC Skepta dropped a surprise remix of the song and it blew up (again) across North America, Europe, and the rest of the globe. The remix sees Skepta reflecting on his Nigerian background and Drake flexing about his ongoing hot streak. We’re still giving it spins.
