Afrobeats superstar Wizkid has earned another major recognition, winning the Best Continental Male Songwriter (Africa) award at the 2025 Entertainment Arts Excellence Awards (EAEA).
The award celebrates his standout writing ability, a skill that has played a key role in shaping his decade-long influence on African music. Known for his smooth melodies, emotionally grounded lyrics, and ability to craft global hits, Wizkid was recognized for his strong contribution to songwriting over the past year.
This latest achievement reinforces his reputation not just as a world-class performer but as one of Africa’s most skilled and consistent songwriters. The 2025 EAEA Awards, dedicated to honouring excellence across the continent’s creative industries, placed special emphasis this year on the craft behind the music, a space where Wizkid continues to excel.
Although fellow Nigerian acts Davido and Burna Boy also walked away with notable wins, Wizkid’s recognition in the songwriting category stands out as a clear nod to the depth and originality of his creative process. His work remains central to the evolution of Afrobeats, both at home and on the global stage.
