The remix of it was recently released, which features Canadian Singer, Justin Bieber. Most people openly disapproved of the thought of the remix; constantly complaining about how irrelevant it is. Others also think it’s a financially and professionally beneficial move for the Grammy award winner. The main album which birthed ‘Essence’ is set to release its deluxe version on 27th August 2021 as announced by Wizkid earlier this week.
