Grammy-Award winning artist Wizkid, born Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, has officially revealed the title of his upcoming album.
The announcement was made on his verified Instagram page through the insta-stories section on Friday night, March 15th, 2024.
This follows a viral post where he declared himself no longer an Afrobeats artist and advised fans of the genre not to anticipate his new album.
In a touching tribute to his late mother, Juliana Morayo Balogun, who passed away on August 18, 2023 in London, Wizkid shared that the album will be named after her.
He expressed that her death has been the most painful experience of his life, leaving a significant void within him.
The new album, titled “Morayo,” holds emotional significance for Wizkid as he honors the memory of his beloved mother through his music.
Wizkid added that no Nigerian blogs or media should post his forthcoming album “Morayo” when he released it then ended it by attacking the paternal figures of each media company in Nigeria by saying “Una Papa.”
Wizkid wrote; “Album name “”Morayo”” best I ever made.”
“Now everybody fvuck off”
“1 more, all u naija blogs, or media, don’t post my shit when it drop! Una papa!.”
