Nigerian music superstar, Ayodeji Balogun, professionally known as Wizkid has bragged about having a lot of hit tracks in his catalogue.
The ‘Ojuelegba’ crooner said that his only problem is that he has released too many hit songs throughout his career.
The Grammy-winning artiste stated this on Sunday night after he mounted the stage at the AfroNation 2023 concert in Miami, Florida.
Wizkid was trying to decide which of his songs to perform first for the audience, which is why he said that having too many hits was a challenge.
“I have only one problem, I got too many hits,” he said.
He, however, went on to stir up the momentum of the crowd by saying that there is no party like a Wizkid party.

In other news, Twitter Influencer, Daniel Regha has said music star, Wizkid started becoming less of a force after he took a jab at rappers.
It may be recalled that during an interview with 10 magazine, the “Essence” crooner said rap is dead while arguing in favour of Afrobeats dominating the Hip Hop genre.
According to the Starboy Entertainment founder, Hip Hop artistes mostly rap on the same beats, and they have similar styles.
Wizkid also took to social media and said Nigerian rappers are non-rappers who lack development and he went on to list South Africa’s Nasty C and Ghana’s Sarkodie as the ‘real rappers’ in Africa.
Subsequently, Wizkid received backlash mostly from Nigerian rap artistes who either responded to him online or released diss freestyles.
Months after the singer made these comments, Regha said he lost his star power due to the outcome of his utterance.
According to the social commentator, it also led to Wizzy’s More Love, Less Ego album turning out as a big failure.
He advised the Joro crooner to recant his statement, beg for forgiveness and make efforts to improve his behaviour.
Regha said; “Wizkid’s star power has seriously dropped after he mocked rappers; MLLE is no doubt a mid project, but this also led to the album being a big flop (compared to MIL). He needs to retract his words, beg for forgiveness & improve his behaviour. Humility goes a long way. No offense.”
