The Ikorodu Bois are international phenomenons in their own right and Wizkid's Essence video is definitely not their first adaptation. They are a group of brothers who mimic and recreate music videos, popular local and international movie trailers. They shot to the limelight after mimicking a rehearsal session of Cuppy. They were nominated this year in the Favourite African Social Media Star category for the Nickelodeon’s Kids Choice Awards alongside Elsa Majimbo, Bonang, Emmanuella, Ghetto Kids and Wian Van Den Berg.
