The name “Morayo” is special to Wizkid.
It was his mother’s name. Sadly, Wizkid’s mother died in August 2023. He named the album after her.
Before talking about the album, Wizkid wrote a sad message about his mother. It was the first time he wrote about her since she died.
Happy birthday love of my life! Miss you everyday. First one without you here feels unreal. Nothing makes sense without you mama! Life is empty without you. Continue to watch over us ! My heart is broken forever ! 💔 love you love love you MORAYO mi. Your smile is all a memory I…

Wizkid has also told his fans something else about “Morayo.” He said the album will have other Nigerian artists on it. In the studio, people have seen Wizkid working with artists like Shallipopi, Odumodublvck, and Omah Lay.
Before “Morayo,” Wizkid released some other music. In 2023, he made a short album called “S2.” It had songs with other artists like Zlatan and Wande Coal.
Also, in 2022, Wizkid released an album called “More Love, Less Ego.” This album had popular songs like “Money & Love” and “Bad To Me.”
Many people are excited to hear “Morayo.”
But Wizkid said something that surprised his fans. He wrote on Instagram that he doesn’t want to be connected to Afrobeats anymore. He also said that people who liked his first album “Superstar” and Afrobeats might not like his new music.
This message from Wizkid has made people even more curious about what “Morayo” will sound like. Indeed, they wonder if his music style has changed a lot.
