Tobe Nwigwe recently bumped into fellow musicians Timbaland and Mike WiLL Made-It during a trip to Paris and the exchange was nothing short of wholesome.
On Saturday (June 24), the Texas native posted a clip of him approaching the two iconic producers while they were seated at an outdoor café. Upon recognizing the “FYE FYE” rapper, they both got up and embraced him warmly.

“I just wanna say hi real quick, how you doin?” Nwigwe said. When Timbaland got up from his chair, the Mo star added: “You ain’t gotta get up.” But the producer was adamant about getting up and going over to greet Tobe, telling him: “You damn right I’m gonna get up.”
After dapping each other up — and Tobe getting a tight hug from Timbo — the three confirmed that they’d be meeting at “the dinner,” the details of which were unclear. Watch the full video below.
It comes as no surprise that artists have so much love for Tobe Nwigwe. Aside from acting, he has a distinct brand in music that sets him apart from his peers.
Last month, he released “On My Soul” with Nas via Mass Appeal Records. At the beginning of the soulful track, which is taken from the new Transformers: Rise of the Beasts soundtrack, he opens up with his signature fast-paced delivery packed with bars that you have to rewind and dissect.
“Guard your grill, guard your grill/ Ain’t nobody out here hard to kill/ The gat I pack go ‘pap’ and peel your cap from front to back/ Have you stiff or hard as steel/ Ah, tuna fish my hardest meal/ Stay trill when they switch to a harder skill/ I’m in the field like a Buffalo Bill with a bubble-coat filled/ With a couple little posts, chill,” the Houston rapper spits.
After Jacob Banks belts out the chorus in riveting fashion, the King’s Disease rapper follows up with a sped-up verse of his own while still sticking to the script of giving us lyrics that’ll make anyone scowl in disbelief.

“Don’t slander all the banter/ Just one answer, I’m an animal/ I’m just one man, outstandin’ though/ Part wolf, part king, part Hannibal/ Example, proof, I’m built like I’m mechanical/ On the mic, I’m a cannibal,” Nas raps.
