Oxlade has confessed to making music because of the all time Nigerian music star, Wande Coal
In a recent chat, Oxlade revealed that a lot of his fans and colleagues don’t know that Wande was his major inspiration and influence for singing.
He said, “I don’t think I’ve ever said this generally before, but I think Wande is the reason I make music, and people don’t even know. Wande is the reason why singers have the guts to still sing. Wande came in an era where, you know, vocalists and singers were a dying breed, and he made us have an identity and still believe in ourselves—so having someone like Wande on this album is a dream come true for me.”
Continuing, Oxlade narrated how he featured Wande Coal on a song entitled, ‘Asunasa – Hold your waist,’ saying after recording the song in Ghana, he felt something was missing and it only took a conversation with Wande Coal to know that his voice was the missing link.
“That’s the fastest song I made on the album. I made it in Ghana, and when I was thinking of the song I felt like the song was just missing something. [Wande and I] were discussing and I just pitched it to him, and he decided to jump on the song. That’s one of my favourite songs of all time, and I feel like the world is going to relate to it.”
