Oxlade Credits Wande Coal as Inspiration Behind Music Career

Nigerian singer, Oxlade, has revealed that Wande Coal was the driving force behind his music career. In a recent interview, Oxlade expressed his admiration for Wande Coal, stating, “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.”

Oxlade praised Wande Coal’s impact on the music industry, saying, “Wande is the reason why singers have the guts to still sing. Wande came in an era where vocalists and singers were a dying breed, and he made us have an identity and still believe in ourselves.” He described having Wande Coal on his album as “a dream come true.”

The singer shared the story of how he collaborated with Wande Coal on his song, “Asunasa – Hold Your Waist.” Oxlade recorded the song in Ghana but felt something was missing. After discussing the track with Wande Coal, he realized the legendary singer’s voice was the missing link.

“[Wande and I] were discussing, and I just pitched it to him, and he decided to jump on the song,” Oxlade explained. “That’s the fastest song I made on the album… That’s one of my favorite songs of all time, and I feel like the world is going to relate to it.”

Oxlade’s album features the highly anticipated collaboration, which is expected to resonate with music lovers worldwide. With Wande Coal’s influential voice and Oxlade’s unique style, “Asunasa – Hold Your Waist” promises to be an unforgettable track.
