“This past Saturday, Wizkid—currently Africa’s hottest pop star by almost any measure—unveiled his new capsule collection with a takeover of Reign in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District.”

Afrobeats, a scene centred in Lagos, fuses the melodic sense of West African Highlife and Palm-wine music with a range of Black Atlantic sounds, including dancehall, Soca, and U.K. soul, to arrive at a truly Pan-African pop place.

Meanwhile, the 28-year-old superstar and Star Boy Entertainment recently launched a pop-up shop for his new Star Boy clothing collection.
