American rapper William Leonard Roberts II aka Rick Ross is featured in the remix of Nigerian singer Adekunle Gold’s ‘5 star’ hit track.

Rick announced the surprise feature via his official Instagram page where he shared a snippet of his part in the song to the excitement of fans.

September 23 has been set for the release, he revealed.

The “5 star” single was produced by Kel-P Vibes and released on July 15. The song quickly blew up as Gold opened up about his earlier struggles with Sickle Cell Anaemia. 

“See I don’t look like wetin I don see

I will never forget the 90s

Many nights I go dey beg for mercy

Sickle cell been show me crises

Thank you for the journey oh Lord oh lord” he said in his lyrics, while simultaneously releasing a newsletter that detailed his struggles.
