Nigerian music sensation Ayodeji Balogun, famously known as Wizkid, has once again proven his star power with his latest album, Morayo.
Released just last week, the album has already garnered immense success and earned a new milestone on Billboard.
In a recent poll conducted by the prestigious American music magazine, Wizkid’s Morayo emerged as the favourite new music of all genres.
The Nigerian superstar outshined global heavyweights like Kendrick Lamar and Jack Harlow, whose albums GNX and Hello Miss Johnson, respectively, were also in the running.
This achievement sparked excitement among fans, especially members of Wizkid FC, his loyal fanbase. Many took to social media to celebrate the win while poking fun at rival artist Davido.
Fans flooded platforms with playful comments and witty remarks, adding spice to the already intense rivalry between the fanbases of Nigeria’s top music stars.
One user, @Julietdamsy, shared, “Wizkid Ayo… Biggest! Kendrick Lamar go think say na play. #morayoalbum.”
Another, @Edisonokojie1, expressed pride in Wizkid’s continued relevance, stating, “I am particularly happy for Wizkid and the success of this new album. People wrote him off, but here he is, doing great things again.”
Meanwhile, others took jabs at Davido, with comments like @only1sodiq_’s, “The greatest of all time. Where frogido?” and @sheanoluwatosin’s, “Don’t ever compare Davido to Wizkid again. Wizkid is miles ahead. Compare him to Fireboy and others instead.”
The Billboard recognition comes as no surprise to many, given Wizkid’s track record of dominating the global music scene. His ability to consistently release music that resonates across cultures has made him a force to reckon with.
Interestingly, the win has also reignited debates about the dynamics of Nigerian music. Some fans have speculated that Wizkid FC rallied behind the poll to secure the victory.
However, for most, it’s just another testament to the artist’s talent and influence.
With Morayo continuing to break barriers, Wizkid solidifies his place as one of Nigeria’s greatest musical exports.
The win is not just about beating Kendrick Lamar or Jack Harlow; it’s a celebration of African music’s global impact. Fans eagerly await what’s next for the Starboy, but one thing is clear—Wizkid is unstoppable.
