Wizkid is undoubtedly the hottest act out of
Africa right now. His debut album, executive
produced by Banky, has shattered all sales
figures and sold over 5 million copies in Nigeria
alone. He won the 2011 MOBO for Best
African Act, was nominated for an MTV
Europe Award in the same category and has
had four straight #1 singles. Labels from the
U.K., US, Japan, Germany and France have
been flying to Lagos to catch a glimpse of the
young entertainer. Akon attended his sold-out
show at the Afrobeats Festival in the U.K. and
remixed his hit single. “Don't Dull.” Wizkid has
150k+ Twitter followers, 262k Facebook fans
and millions of views of his lyrics, videos and
music on YouTube. His latest video, released
a week ago—which you can check out here—
has already garnered 160k views. Expect
Wizkid fever to hit Europe and the U.S. In this New year 2012.
