Nigerian award-winning artiste, Wizkid sat down with 'Red Radio' on the 22nd of February 2021 for an exclusive interview on his 'Made in Lagos' project and some fun stuff about his life.
The interview was released on the 24th of February and after watching the interesting chat, here are some things we found out.
Wizkid
1. Vibe 'Made in Lagos' On Sunday
The first thing we got from the interview is that Wizkid created 'Made in Lagos' to give you a stressless song that can bring you peace of mind. According to Wizkid;
When I'm making an album, I feel ike I'm painting a mood for people to feel. And with Covid and everything going around in the world I just feel ike it is very important to have this kind of music out to the world especially at this time. Before COVID we were all jumping around in the clubs listening to ... you can listen to that but when it comes to when you want to chill; chill and thank God for family, for life, you're hanging out by the beach, at night, in he morning, everything different from club, there are certain types of music you play. So it was just very important for me to put out a body of work that actually make people feel something. Not just I want you to dance in the club, that's cool, but I want youth go back to it on Sunday see, I want youth go back and play my album on a Sunday, that's the kind f vibe I wanted to give and I'm very happy that people love the music.

2. Wizkid's Favourite Track off 'Made in Lagos'
Wizkid, Tems - Essence
The next thing we found out about Wizkid is his favourite track from his 'Made in Lagos' project and it is non-other than 'Blessed' ft. Damian Marley and we understand why that will be because who else is rough around the edges from Ojuelegba Shitta and still blessed if not Wizkid? But stating the reason why that jam is his fave, Wizkid said; "I would say it's 'Blessed' with Damian Marley, that was a very spiritual session"
3. New Music with Young Artistes
Omah Lay and Tems
The third thing we learnt from Wizkid is the other young artistes he is taking new music with. We know, through videos shared on Instastory that Wizkid is recording music with young talents like Omah Lay and Tems, but apparently, he's also working with BadBoy Timz and Bella Shmurda. Speaking about it he said; "I've been working with everyone ... I've literally been getting it with everyone, I've been getting it with Badboy Timz, I wanna get it with Bella Shmurda, and just every young act doing amazing stuff."
4. Not a Football Fan
Our number four eye-opener on Wizkid is that he is not a football lover like a lot of other artistes and it makes sense because have you ever heard Wizkid talk about his club winning or losing in all of his emoji tweets? None we can think of but please be kind to remind us by tagging us to the tweet if you find it.
5. Owo Ni Koko
Finally, not sure you need anyone to tell you that Wizkid likes money, but if after listening to this interview you didn't sense that, let's just be the one to tell you. Machala does not sound like he'll play with his paper and that was observed from his response to questions such as "cash or card?", "money or fame?" but the truth is, who doesn't like the money?
