Wizkid is a Nigerian singer and songwriter who started recording music at age 11 and managed to release a collaborative album with the Glorious Five, a group he and a couple of his church friends formed.

He rose to prominence in 2010 with the release of the song 'Holla at your boy' from his debut studio album, ''Superstar''.

Wizkid's self-titled second studio album, ''Ayo'', was released in September 2014 and was preceded by six singles.

In 2016, Wizkid achieved international recognition following his collaboration with Drake on the global hit, 'One Dance,' which reached number one in 15 countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.

Following the release of his second studio album and expiration of his 5-year recording contract, Wizkid left E.M.E.

On March 1, 2017, it was reported that Wizkid signed a multi-album deal with RCA Records although the deal was first reported by several media outlets in September 2016.
