Wizkid – Aprèz Minuit Ft. Tiakola

Aprèz Minuit is track 10 on Wizkid’s Morayo album, released November 22, 2024, and it features French-Congolese artist Tiakola in a smooth Afro-melodic crossover. Produced by P2J and Tiakola, the track leans into a late-night, laid-back vibe with soft guitar riffs, subtle log drums, and a melodic flow that blends Yoruba, English, and French. The production is airy and spacious, giving both artists room to glide with relaxed vocals that match the song’s after-hours mood.

Lyrically, the song is about romance and connection that happens after midnight, when the world quiets down and conversations get more honest. Wizkid handles the Afrobeats side with his signature melodic delivery, while Tiakola brings his Afro-R&B flair in French, making it one of the most internationally textured cuts on Morayo. It doesn’t engage with the album’s grief themes directly, but instead shows the range of Wizkid’s project by tapping into global sounds and collaborations. The hook is mellow and replayable, designed for late-night drives and playlists rather than the dancefloor.

On Morayo, Aprèz Minuit works as a smooth transition toward the album’s close, highlighting Wizkid’s ability to bridge Afrobeats with European Afro-melodic trends. The collaboration with Tiakola expanded the album’s reach in Francophone markets, and the song performed well on streaming playlists in France, Belgium, and West Africa. Fans have noted it as one of the most effortless features on the record, with both artists sounding natural over the beat.
