Wizkid teams up with Jorja Smith on new single 'Alive' released July 2
Wizkid teamed up with British singer-songwriter Jorja Smith to release the new single "Alive" on July 2, 2026. The track, produced by British-Nigerian producer P2J, blends R&B with Afrobeats and explores the excitement of a new relationship. It was written by Smith, Wizkid, P2J, Clementine Douglas and Austin Jnr Iornongu Iwar, mixed by Sam Harper and mastered by Prash 'Engine-Earz' Mistry. A music video directed by Gabriel Trautmann accompanies the release, showing the pair in romantic scenes that match the song's laid-back summer vibe. The single serves as a lead-off for Smith's third studio album, "What Are The Odds," set for release on August 21 through FAMM Records.
For Nigerian listeners, the collaboration spotlights Wizkid's continuing role in pushing Afrobeats onto global stages. His recent feature on Dutch rapper Frenna's "Coca Body" with British-Nigerian singer Odeal shows he remains an active international collaborator, giving fans fresh music to stream while anticipating his own upcoming projects.
The song is now available on all major streaming platforms, and the official video can be watched on YouTube. Will you add "Alive" to your playlist now, or wait for the full album drop in August?
