It's taken over a year of production, which has been plagued by delays caused by claims of minor stunt injuries on set and Covid-19.

After months of rumors, filming began in August 2020 for the recasting of King T'Challa, played by Chadwick Boseman, who died of cancer the previous year.

While Marvel has yet to make an official announcement about the new Black Panther, the sequel's new teaser, which was released last month, indicated that Wright will play the superhero.

On November 11, Wakanda Forever will be released worldwide.

Koffee, a Jamaican music wonder and rising talent, praised Nigerian Afrobeats megastar Davido in an interview with BBC Radio 1xtra.

According to her, she has admired Davido since the first time she heard his music. According to the young Jamaican star, Davido's consistency and ability to experiment with diverse styles while still generating hits distinguishes him as a musician rather than merely an artist.

"Ever since hearing him the first time I have loved him. I love how he presents his work. He's definitely a musician and not just an artist who will just write lyrics or whatever. I love his way of expression and I love that he's consistent and he experiments and he doesn't stick to one sound but he keeps the bangers coming. Wherever he goes with his direction you always seem to know it's a hit."
