Ayodele Balogun, aka Wizkid, must be a lucky young man. Apart from the fact that he is one of fastest rising singers in Africa, some US-based music stars are only too eager to work with him on their new albums.
During a recent tour of North America with the EME crew led by Banky W, Wizkid got rave reviews in the United States media. Indeed, one of the high points of his success with the media was last weekend’s exclusive interview with the international entertainment platform, MTV Iggy.
In addition to this, Wizkid won two awards at the recent NEA awards in New York in the Best Pop/R & B artiste and Best Album of the year categories.
He will be slugging in out with D’Banj, Sarkodie, Camp Mulla and Mi Casa on Nov. 11 at the aanual MTV EMA awards in Frankfurt, for the Worldwide Act category.
Unknown to many music fans, Wizkid recently recorded major collaborations with international music acts like Young Jeezy, The Game, Kardinal Official, Wale, and the King of Dancehall, Beenie Man. The CDs are due for release in the US and Europe on the respective artistes record labels.
