There was an ad that Johnnie Walker made last year, and it had Burna Boy (and his mom + a couple other creatives) which was superlative.

They try to connect with African artists/creatives on an intricate level (Their "NO LABELS" campaign series is truly a brilliant testament of that—or so I believe).

They deserve hella props for all the incredible work they've been doing. 👏🏾

And yeah, Odumodublvck went on a "rampage" in '22 (I wrote a piece about his turbulent wave to stardom somewhere).

Victony found his way through too! (I remember he got to headline his own outlaw event in Lagos, which was successful.)

But Asake really did had an amazing run. He had the year on lock—still does.
