 Mexico agrees to host Iran’s World Cup team after U.S. declines to accommodate squad, Sheinbaum says    Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Monday that Mexico has agreed to host the Iranian national football team during the upcoming World Cup after the United States declined to accommodate the squad. Sheinbaum said the decision followed a request from FIFA, which sought an alternative arrangement after U.S. officials indicated they did not want Iran’s team staying in the country for the duration of the tournament, even though Iran is scheduled to play all of its group-stage matches on U.S. soil. “We have no reason to deny them the possibility of staying in Mexico,” Sheinbaum said during her daily press conference, adding that Mexico accepted the request in coordination with tournament organizers. Iranian football federation officials said the team’s base of operations would be relocated from Arizona to Tijuana, near the U.S.-Mexico border, to simplify travel logisti...

 Nasty C Says Wizkid and Drake’s “One Dance” Opened Global Doors for African Music


Nasty C has praised Wizkid for playing a major role in boosting the global popularity of African music.


Speaking during a podcast interview, the “Zulu Man With Some Power” rapper stated that Wizkid’s 2016 collaboration with Canadian superstar Drake on the hit song One Dance helped open international doors for modern African artists.


According to Nasty C, the success of the collaboration gave Afrobeats massive global exposure and made the genre far more profitable.


He explained that the impact became so significant that some rappers reportedly began moving away from hip-hop to focus on Afrobeats.


“Wizkid and Drake collaboration on ‘One Dance’ opened the door for African artists. After the collaboration, African music received a significant boost. During some of my interviews in Nigeria and Ghana, the hosts told me that some rappers were even switching to Afrobeats because of how lucrative it has become after Wizkid’s collaboration with Drake,” he said.


Reports note that Drake’s “One Dance,” which also featured British singer Kyla, became the first song in Spotify history to surpass one billion streams, earning a Guinness World Record.


The track, which blends Afrobeats, dancehall, and pop sounds, is widely regarded as one of the records that pushed Afrobeats further into the global spotlight.


Drake also previously acknowledged Wizkid’s major contribution to the song.


Wizkid received credits on the track as a co-songwriter, co-producer, and featured performer.
