Nigerian music superstar, Ayodeji Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, has revealed why he seldom makes political comments in his songs and interviews.
According to the ‘More Love Less Ego’ crooner, the Nigerian masses do not care about politics in their country, saying they only care about how to make ends meet.
Wizkid made the assertion in a recent interview with Evening Standard, UK.
The singer maintained that doesn’t like to speak about politicians in his country because the people on the streets only care about themselves and how to feed but every other thing don’t matter to them.
Wizkid also spoke about his role as a leader of the new generation of Nigerian musicians making the Afrobeats genre known on the global stage.
He said he wouldn’t judge previous generations, stressing that his goal is “to steer the new generation forward.”
Wizkid said he wished that the new crop of Afrobeats artists would make global exploits and be united.
