Nigerian international superstar Wizkid has finally released his much-anticipated sixth studio album, Morayo, a project brimming with emotion, sophistication, and usual style that has solidified his global acclaim. Released two years after his fifth album, More Love Less Ego, the new body of work is named in honour of his late mother, Jane Dolapo, as a tribute to her life and legacy.
With Morayo, Wizkid moves into themes that resonate deeply with his artistry — love, life, pleasure, opulence, and the joy of celebration. At the same time, the album exudes a sense of introspection and reverence, balancing party anthems with heartfelt tributes.
The 16-track album opens with Troubled Mind, a powerful intro featuring the vocals of the iconic Nigerian Fuji maestro K1 De Ultimate. The track sets a reflective tone, blending Wizkid’s modern Afrobeats sound with the timeless depth of traditional Yoruba music.
