Burna Boy, Tems, CKay, Rema, and Fireboy are among the Nigerian superstars who participate in the album. P.Priime, who produced three tracks, was one of the Nigerian producers that contributed to the project.

This week, the lead single from Rihanna, “Lift Me Up,” creates radio history by becoming the song with the most spins and listeners added in a single day on American airwaves.

Over 40 foreign musicians contributed to the soundtrack for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which was recorded in Lagos, Nigeria, Mexico City, London, and Los Angeles. Artists like Rihanna, Tems, Fireboy DML, OG DAYV Ft. Future, CKay Ft. PinkPantheress, E-40, and many more are included.

Coogler and Göransson set out to create an avant-garde soundscape for their fourth film project, “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” where Göransson claims, “The songs and score are one.” Since they were students at USC Film School, the two artists have discussed this strategy, and with “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” they have finally made it a reality.

Over 2500 hours were spent by Göransson in what turned out to be a major labor of love, involving six studios, three continents, and five different countries. The audience will hear more than 250 musicians, two orchestras, two choirs, and more than 40 vocalists throughout the whole movie.

In addition to co-writing the lyrics for the Rihanna song “Lift Me Up,” Coogler also suggested Tems, a Nigerian singer/songwriter, do a rendition of Bob Marley’s “No Woman, No Cry,” which was then blended with Kendrick Lamar’s “Alright” for the film’s instantly popular trailer.

Recording sessions were organized in Lagos, Nigeria, Mexico City, and Abbey Road Studios in London since the plot is influenced by Mesoamerican and Nigerian traditions. Producers collaborated with well-known musicians from Lagos, including Tems, who is now a center for musical creativity. The soundtrack also includes work from up-and-coming rappers and musicians from Mexico City, such as the Mayan-only rapper Pat Boy.
