Co-signs don’t get much bigger than Drake, so Hyzah has pretty much hit the jackpot.
On Saturday (January 9), a Twitter video began to circulate of the talented Nigerian artist freestyling on a street in Lagos. Soon enough, the clip of Hyzah singing with a speaker blew up across social media with the help of influencers, celebrities and even made its way onto Drizzy’s timeline.
An excited Hyzah took to Instagram to reveal he had only two followers before his video went viral and caught Drake’s attention. Drizzy was so impressed, he made the aspiring artist one of the 2,403 people he’s following.
“Just yesterday i had only 2 followers only to wake up this morning to see Drake @champagnepapi following me,” he wrote under a screenshot. “Thanks for the love & repost!! You guys are amazing!!”
