NGAkon, the Senegalese-American music star, revealed in an interview that he signed Nigerian singer Wizkid after being introduced to him by Banky W during a visit to Nigeria. Akon clarified that Banky W initially discovered Wizkid and nurtured his career before introducing him to Akon. According to Akon, signing Wizkid helped launch his career in the United States when Afrobeats was still gaining global recognition. Akon also mentioned that he missed the chance to sign Drake in 2008 due to financial constraints, noting that Drake's music at the time did not yet reflect the style that would later make him internationally famous. Wizkid, discovered by Banky W in 2009, rose to prominence with his debut album 'Superstar' and has since become one of Africa's most prominent music exporters.
