Grammy-winning artist Ayodeji Balogun, widely known as Wizkid, proudly emphasized his natural ability to create hit songs with minimal effort. In a candid studio interview, Wizkid disclosed that he records all his major tracks while seated.
This underscores the ease with which he produces chart-topping music. He made it clear that the process of making hits is entirely stress-free for him.
Additionally, Wizkid expressed his strong aversion to traditional music promotion and press interviews, noting that he has a deep understanding of his audience’s preferences and is fully prepared to meet their expectations without the need for extensive publicity efforts.
Further, Wizkid elaborated on his approach, stating, “All my biggest songs from ‘Holla At Your Boy’ to ‘Soco’, ‘Joro’, ‘Ojuelegba’, I recorded them sitting down. You [P2J] know how my things be for Lagos. You’ve been in my house. You know what I do. I’m chilling.”
He went on to explain his disdain for promotional activities, adding, “You get me, no stress. You see promo, I hate doing that sh*t. You know press, I hate doing all that sh*t, bro. I know exactly what the people want. [Producer] P2J is the only n*gga that understands me. All we have to do is turn on the mic.”
Wizkid also touched on the impact of globalization on the music industry, noting that artists no longer need to rely on others to create a buzz around their work. The amazing thing is that the world is now globalized, you don’t need anyone to lie to you,” he concluded.
Furthermore, this insight into Wizkid’s creative process and his approach to the music industry sheds light on why he remains one of the most influential and successful artists of his generation.
His confidence in his talent, combined with his understanding of the evolving global music landscape, continues to set him apart in the industry.
