Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, popularly known as WizKid, who recently launched his latest album on October 29 has revealed that Naira Marley is one of his favorite artistes, adding that he loves his lyrics.

The Nigerian superstar singer revealed this in a recent interview with Beat FM, while he spoke about the process and energy that went into the making of his new album and the amount of time it took to complete the recording.

He was asked about the kind of music he listens to, in response Wizkid reveals he listens to different genres of music.

In his words, “On my playlist? I listen to everybody. There are so many Naira Marley songs I wish I sang but I can’t say the things he says.

“There are people you don’t think I listen to that I do. Because you, as a musician, you’d be stupid not to pay attention to words around you, especially the young. There are so many Naira Marley songs I wish I sang.

“But I can’t say the things he says, although they’re things I think about in my head. That’s why I love him.”
