Nigerian singer Ololade Ahmed, popularly known as Asake, has revealed that his colleague Wizkid reached out to him to be featured in his song 'MMS'.

During a recent interactive session with fans on Instagram, Asake shared, "I didn't plan to have Wizkid on that song, to be honest. I had someone else in mind, but P. Prime played the song for Wiz, and he said, 'I love this song, I want to be on it.'"
'MMS' was released on Friday as part of Asake's third studio album, 'Lungu Boy'.
