Wizkid Sounds From The Other Side Zip 〈ESSENTIAL — 2024〉

"Sounds from the Other Side" is the third studio album by Nigerian singer Wizkid, released on July 27, 2018. The album features 14 tracks, including collaborations with international artists like Drake, Chris Brown, and Ty Dolla Sign.

The production on SFTOS is lush and polished, featuring contributions from heavyweights like Sarz, Spellz, and P2J. The instrumentation relies heavily on syncopated drum patterns and "shakers" that are synonymous with Afrobeats, yet it incorporates the slick, heavy basslines of Caribbean Dancehall. Wizkid’s vocal performance throughout is effortless; he favors melody and "vibe" over complex lyricism, using his voice as an instrument to create a hypnotic, rhythmic experience.
