Wizkid Claims Three (3) Top Prize At BillBoard Music Awards(See List)

Wizkid’s reputation as one of the finest
artists to come out of Nigeria and Africa
continues to receive rave review as the
Ojuelegba crooner won the several
honours with Canadian Drake in the 2017
BillBoard Music Awards in Las Vegas held
in the early hours of Monday morning.
Having been nominated for 12 of the
awards, the song ‘One Dance’ which was
collaborated with Drake and Tyla
dominated the awards despite the fact
that they couldn’t win the Top Selling
Song; which was awarded to Justin
Timberlake, “Can’t Stop The Feeling!”
Besides, the song also claims the prize of
the Top R&B song and also the Top R&B
collaboration.
There is no doubt that the Bariga born
musical talent has grown beyond bounds
and reach; and who knows Wizkid could
just be in the spotlight for a Grammy
award sooner than you expect.
Meanwhile, Drake was the biggest winner
at the 2017 Awards. The rapper took
home 13 awards, making him the artist
with the most in a single year, beating
Adele’s record of 12.
