Award-winning British R&B singer and songwriter Jorja Smith has joined forces once again with Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Wizkid for their highly anticipated new single, “Alive.”
Officially released on July 2, 2026, the collaboration reunites two global artists whose previous records together have earned widespread acclaim from fans around the world.
The release marks another memorable chapter in the musical partnership between Jorja Smith and Wizkid, following the success of their earlier collaborations, including “Be Honest” and “People.”
Musically, “Alive” fuses Jorja Smith’s warm, velvety R&B vocals with Wizkid’s effortless Afro-fusion style, resulting in a romantic and laid-back record perfect for the summer season. The polished production, infectious melodies, and heartfelt performances from both artists make the collaboration one of the standout international releases of the year.
Interestingly, “Alive” arrived on the same day as another major Wizkid collaboration, “Coca Body,” a joint record by Dutch rapper and singer Frenna featuring Wizkid and British-Nigerian singer Odeal. The back-to-back releases further highlight Wizkid’s continued influence on the global music scene and his ability to seamlessly collaborate with artists across different genres and markets.
With its soothing sound, exceptional vocal chemistry, and world-class production, “Alive” is a remarkable addition to both Jorja Smith’s and Wizkid’s catalogs, making it an essential listen for fans of contemporary R&B and Afrobeats. > Alive Full Lyrics
