It was released on 2 November 2013 and features vocal appearances from Nigerian musicians Patoranking, Runtown and Skales. While each artist solely wrote their own respective verse, WizzyPro served as the track's executive producer. The song was viewed favourably among several music critics, most of which noted "Emergency" as a standout track on Lord of the Sound. The single won the "Best Collaboration" category at the 2014 edition of The Headies.[1] An accompanying music video for "Emergency" was released on 18 January 2014 and features the four singers performing the song to the public while dancing and singing in a street. Background and compositionDevelopment of the song first began in WizzyPro's personal recording studio. According to Pulse{{'}}s Joey Akan, despite recruiting several "young guns" for the original composition, WizzyPro did not intend for "Emergency" to become a success.[2] The single was ultimately released on 2 November 2013 through Dem Mama Records.[3] Following its surge in popularity, it was announced in March 2016 that "Emergency" would be included on WizzyPro's debut studio album, titled Lord of the Sounds (2016).[4] An afropop song lasting for three minutes and fifty-two seconds,[3] "Emergency" was written by Douglas Jack, Patrick Okorie, and Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, while WizzyPro provided the original production.[4][5] All three artists wrote their own individual verses, as performed over varying chord progressions.[4][6] During Patoranking's verse, he refers to the track's lead artist and exclaims: "I see emergency, na na na / WizzyPro beats causing madness".[7] Badmus Bello Shuaibu, a writer for Naija Celebrity, inferred that the use of the word 'emergency' in Davido's 2014 single "Aye" was inspired by the repetitiveness in "Emergency".[7] Reception"Emergency" was well received by contemporary music critics. Shuaibu from Naija Celebrity wrote about "Emergency" in his "Hit Song of the Week" column, where he claimed: "You can't walk pass a street in Lagos without hearing people singing [the song]."[7] Ovie O. from the Nigerian music website NotJustOk described the single as a "banger",[8] while Filfi Adinkra from Ghana Ndwom declared it a "crazy jam".[9] Along the same lines, Abiola Solanke from Pulse called it "top notch" and acclaimed the production that WizzyPro performed on the track.[10] AllAfrica.com's Aderibigbe Tolulope found his production skills exceptional and "enough to show he's taking the music business seriously".[11] In 2014, "Emergency" was selected for two distinctions within the Nigerian music industry. At the 2014 Nigeria Entertainment Awards held in New York City, "Emergency" was nominated under the "Best Collaboration" category, but lost to Runtown's "Gallardo".[17] Additionally, it won at The Headies 2014 held on Victoria Island for the same category.[12] Accolades
Music videoAn accompanying music video for "Emergency" was released on 18 January 2014 through WizzyPro's official YouTube account.[15] The visual was directed by Patrick Ellis and features cameos from all of the track's artists. The video commences with Runtown walking through a street while singing the song's lyrics; the other musicians join him after departing nearby parked cars. From a crowd of people, each of them step forward during their verses, which continues for the video's entirety.[16] References1. ^{{cite news|url=http://leadership.ng/entertainment/396456/best-collabos-2014|title=Best Collabos Of 2014|work=Leadership Newspaper|last1=Abulude|first1=Samuel|last2=Abraham|first2=Anthony Ada|date=20 December 2014|accessdate=12 April 2016}} 2. ^{{cite news|last1=Akan|first1=Joey|title=Patoranking has earned his Headies reward|url=http://pulse.ng/music/joey-s-monday-musings-patoranking-has-earned-his-headies-reward-id3348270.html|accessdate=21 October 2016|work=Pulse|date=15 December 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=L.O.T.S (Lord of the Sounds) by Wizzypro on iTunes|url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/emergency-feat.../id1088665879|website=iTunes Store|publisher=Apple Inc.|date=3 March 2016|accessdate=21 October 2016}} 4. ^{{cite AV media notes |title=Lord of the Sounds |type=CD liner notes |others=WizzyPro |publisher=Dem Mama Records |year=2016 }} 5. ^{{cite news|last1=Abulude|first1=Samuel|title=Nigeria: Wizkid Collaborates With Runtown in Lagos to Kampala|url=http://allafrica.com/stories/201604040413.html|accessdate=20 October 2016|publisher=AllAfrica.com|date=2 April 2016}} 6. ^1 {{cite news|url=https://notjustok.com/2013/11/02/wizzypro-emergency-ft-runtown-skales-patoranking/ |title=WizzyPro – Emergency ft.
