Efya On Signing With WizKid’s Label: “…It Made Sense To Be On The Same Team”

In May 2016, during his performance at the 2016 Ghana Music Awards, Nigerian Afrobeats artiste Wizkid announced he had signed Efya, R2Bees and Mr. Eazi to his music label, Star Boy WorldWide Records.
Efya recently spoke with the folks at OkayAfrica about why she signed to StarBoy.

“Wizkid and I have been friendly for a long time so I think it was just about You know, it was a timing thing. We have so much music together and it made sense to be on the same team,” explains the ‘Forgetting Me‘ Songstress.

“It was meant to happen. Work-wise, we work really well together and as you can see on “Daddy Yo” we had a lot of fun.”

She also spoke about working with WizKid on his single ‘Daddy Yo.’

“I mean, every time I’m asked that question, I say we were in the studio and we were just vibing and that’s how it was, you know. We had come across a lot of different kind of sounds and I wanted to try something different. That was the first time that I tried anything in that genre and I’m glad we did it.”

A new single ‘Until The Dawn‘ produced by Maleek Berry will be released on June 10.
