All eyes are currently on Wizkid for his marvellous collaboration with Drake and Skepta on the remix of ‘Ojuelegba’.

The song which was released last year as the best single off Wizkid’s ‘Ayo (Joy)’ album has had a lot of remixes, but this one leads them all the best so far.

But away from that, this year has not exactly been lacking in international superstar-dust. We have had massive collaborations fly in thick from all corners. Many are even unreleased. Wizkid has a song with Chris Brown, Davido has a single with Trey Songz, and Praiz is on a feature with an undisclosed US Hip hop rapper.

While these songs are still to make their way through the studio and into our playlists, Pulse puts together top 5 international collaborations that have made it to the African public.

Of course the song of the moment gets the most prized slot. The song was not a product of endless hours of planning and masterful orchestration. It was time and chance, which brought it to life.

Tech giants, Apple has launched their potential game-changing streaming service, Apple Music, which also contains a radio service. In a bid to make it go viral as a bonafide paid music streaming solution, they had signed up a number of international stars to host shows. Drake is one of them.

The ‘6 God’ owns a show titled OVO Sounds, on which he plays songs, premieres new materials, showcases special feature music, and generally gives a unique angle to the Apple service.

During the Wireless Music Festival which held at the London earlier this month, Skepta who is a friend and fan of Wizkid, played the song for Drake, who fell in love and made a remix. The song got a premiere on Apple Music, shutting down the internet with downloads and conversations.

Before Drake extended his blessings to Wizkid,
