This is a quickfail. The article's prose contains many hallmarks of text generated by a large language model. Regardless of reference quality, it requires remediation to remove the puffery that this adds to the prose. Here are some of the passages that caught my attention as being AI-generated:

• The announcement was met with overwhelming excitement from fans and fellow artists
• Hashtags like #Joro and #Wizkid dominated Nigerian and international trends on Twitter, underscoring the anticipation for the track.
• underscoring Wizkid's commitment to infusing his music with African cultural elements
• drawing inspiration from the richness of Afrobeat rhythms and themes of devotion
• It played a significant role in establishing Wizkid as one of Africa's most certified/best-selling artists, with numerous certifications across major music markets.
• The video features a striking interplay of vibrant colors and dramatic lighting, enhancing the song's hypnotic Afrobeat rhythm.

LLM-generated text has a tendency to make sweeping generalizations which rarely can be followed through by the sources that are intended to support them. I also think this is part of overly literally using the source text even when this is sensationalized or overly puffy, a problem I've noticed at times when engaging with news articles from African media. The Pulse Nigeria article with quotes like But again, the industry came to a stand still after Wizkid announced that 'Joro' will finally drop on October 1, 2019. and a series of tweets barely do anything to verify the first generalization.

Please consider reading Wikipedia:Large language models before continuing. I was looking forward to reviewing this, as I've gotten into Afrobeats a bit in the last year, but this article right now requires replacement of large-language-generated prose with human-generated prose that meets our policies and guidelines. That is a task too large for a longform fail or evaluation of other criteria.
