The say give credit where it’s due but not for Femi One’s viral Utawezana<\/em> track. The female rapper is not about to let the credit go to TikTok queen, Azziad Nasenya.<\/p>\n

If anything, the song was already a hit and doing exuberantly well on the social media platform that it did not really need much of a push.<\/p>\n

While celebrating the jam’s 5 million views on YouTube, having just premiered barely a month ago, an overwhelmed Femi One flaunted:<\/p>\n

Finally!! We are at 5million views …we can now release another one Yes?!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Unfortunately though, fans were quick to acknowledge Azziad Nasenya’s significant input into the track’s popularity posing:<\/p>\n

I hope mlikanja aziad kakitu<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Another fan blasting:<\/p>\n

I doubt, na venye alileta views and made it sth on tiktok too.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Femi One was quick to respond to the same, clarifying that the song was already a hit before Azziad Nasenya’s dance came into play.<\/p>\n

So if anything, the TikTok queen gained fame through the viral ‘Utawezana’ song challenge and not the converse.<\/p>\n

The song was already trending on tiktok that’s why she did the challenge because she came across it on tik tok.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That simply meant no single penny was going into the dancer’s pockets because probably it was a win-win situation for the both parties.<\/p>\n

The challenge<\/h2>\n

Azziad took up the\u00a0Utawezana\u00a0<\/em>challenge on TikTok, unleashing some smart dance moves jamming to the song that captivated the eyes of fans.<\/p>\n

Of all the challenges out up, the young dancer’s moves carried the day and that is how she trended.<\/p>\n

The challenge took over Twitter, attracting the attention of both men and women alike.<\/p>\n

From her wasp-like well-trimmed waist, to the seamless whining, not to talk of her skin tone and not to forget her sweet, innocent smile that stole the hearts of many.<\/p>\n

The Internet was brought to a standstill. Since then, the rest was history.<\/p>\n

Either way, the Kaka Empire produced track is a hit! Since it’s release on April Fool’s – 1st April, the song has hit the International market.<\/p>\n

Big question is, are we starring at the club banger’s remix or just another similar hit? Time will tell.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, have a watch of the viral hit:<\/p>\n
