On the Afrobeats podcast, famed singer Gabriel Oche Amanyi, Terry G, recently likened Wizkid to Jay-Z.
According to him, Wizkid is the Nigerian counterpart of Jay-Z, the wildly successful American hip-hop icon and entrepreneur who has had a significant impact on the genre.
“Wizkid is the Jay-Z of our generation. He’s the first [born child of the new generation of Nigerian musicians] and we’ll always give it to him. One thing I like about Wizkid is his carriage. He has inspired a lot of people,” he said.
The ‘Akpako Master’ recalled how Wizkid came to his house back in 2016 for a recording session with him.
“Wizkid came to my house in Ishaga in 2016 to record a song with me. I was very happy he came. We recorded 4 songs together. God bless Wizkid,” Terry G said.
Unity is strength.
Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
