Jay-z To Release 'The Ascension' Album Featuring Olamide, Femi Kuti by Amotolongbo(op): 12:26pm On Apr 01, 2021

US rapper Jay-Z has unveiled the tracklist for his African-themed album titled The Ascension which will be released in a few weeks time.

The album features Olamide, Femi Kuti, Nasty C and Sarkodie all from Africa. On the foreign front, The Ascension features Beyoncé, Rick Ross, H.E.R and the duo of Lighthouse family.

Speaking on the 16-track album, Jay-Z said, “I’ve always wanted to get in touch with my roots and connect to the motherland. You know, Africa is blessed with so much talent and I felt like it was time to tap into that resource. The Ascension is not just talking or focusing on Africa but it’s also about me giving back to the people, familiarizing with the culture and connecting more with the motherland.”

Hmmm, the cheat, I am yet to see a celebrity that will shame the devil and stay faithful to their spouse, why will anyone cheat on Beyonce? Why? Beyonce that he met a virgin,

Even as she still stayed with him, things can never be the same again, never.

No foreign artiste worth his weight in gold would feature olamide except say na cruise them wan catch.
Dude is what we can liken to today's tiktok celebrities.
They perform to the trend and quickly fade away because trends are transient.
Anyway, na April fool story.

not surprised bcoz femi kuti, sarkodie n nasty are all kings in thier lane...
about baddo, if u are big fan of olamide back then when he was killing hits with his streets rap, you would recall dt he was always a fan of jay-z which he do call jigga...
it would b a dream come true for baddoo and a big win for the streets because it means he is reping d streets over thier in jand..
no disrespect but if an m.I or vector get such a huge collabo, it would gv dt artise an edge over the oda..
am not saying all naija rappers should be eyeing foreign collaboration but my point is dt you are doing something right to get such a huge collabo..
ride on baddoo....na only those wey know how you take start from barigga without a sponsor naim go fit relate bcoz even codes tunes back den no fit predict a future collabo with jay-z...

Does it mean Jay Z can't afford Burna Boy at the moment or is Oluwa Burna's Grace stronger that Jay Z has to go for low budget arts.... people are busy tapping from Oluwa Burna's Grace, Rivers State Governor just tapped from that grace by giving him a triumphant welcome as He entered Port Harcourt...if you want to go higher at the moment look for a way to tap from Oluwa Burna if you can have access to him,.....
