Grammy award-winning Nigerian artist, Ayodeji Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, recently made a bold statement about his relaxed approach to creating hit music.

In a viral video circulating online, the renowned Afrobeats star revealed that he recorded all of his chart-topping songs while sitting down, highlighting how effortless it is for him to make music that resonates with his fans.

According to Wizkid, his creative process is laid-back and stress-free, as he explained that he doesn’t go to great lengths to craft his popular tracks.

He mentioned several of his biggest hits, including *Holla At Your Boy*, *Soco*, *Joro*, and *Ojuelegba*, all of which were recorded while he was in a relaxed state. “You know, from *Holla At Your Boy* to *Soco*, *Joro*, *Ojuelegba*—I recorded all of them sitting down,” Wizkid disclosed, adding that he doesn’t put pressure on himself to create music.

Speaking to his longtime collaborator and producer, P2J, Wizkid gave further insight into his lifestyle in Lagos, noting that the atmosphere in his home is one of pure relaxation, which contributes to his effortless music-making process.

“You know how it is in Lagos, you’ve been to my house, you’ve seen how I do things. I’m just chilling, no stress,” he explained.

The *Essence* hitmaker went on to express his aversion to promoting his music and doing press appearances, admitting that he dislikes both aspects of the music industry.

“I hate doing promo and press,” Wizkid candidly remarked, emphasizing that he prefers to focus on creating music that directly connects with his audience. He believes that his understanding of what his fans want allows him to bypass traditional promotional efforts.

Wizkid praised producer P2J as one of the few people who truly understands his approach to music. He expressed how easy it is to work with P2J, noting that all they need to do is “turn on the mic” to create magic. “P2J is the only person who really understands me. We just need to turn on the mic, and that’s it,” he said.

Wizkid also touched on the evolving nature of the music industry, particularly the global reach of Afrobeats.

Speed Darlington is making headlines due to his insinuations about Burna Boy and Diddy, stirring a lot of controversy.

He implied that Burna Boy may have engaged in inappropriate activities with Diddy to secure his 2021 Grammy‏ Award for his Twice As Tall album.

These claims come as Diddy faces serious accusations of being a predator who allegedly exploits both men and women.

Notably, a rapper has come forward claiming that Diddy promised him a Grammy in exchange for intimate relations, which Diddy allegedly failed to deliver on.

Diddy’s reputation has been tainted by other shocking allegations, including claims that he was involved in the tragic death of Tupac Shakur.

According to court confessions, Diddy’s name was mentioned 75 times, with one key testimony suggesting he paid $1 million for the hit on Tupac.

Other disturbing claims emerged from his former driver, who testified that he once caught Diddy in a compromising situation with actor Will Smith.

It’s alleged that Diddy regularly hosts what he calls “all-white parties,” which witnesses have described as secretive orgy events, predominantly attended by men.

These allegations have fueled long-standing rumours about his relationships with various celebrities, including Usher, Meek Mill, and Will Smith.

One notable scandal from last year involved his ex-girlfriend Cassie, who sued him, accusing him of physical and sexual abuse throughout their decade-long relationship, which reportedly started when she was 19 and Diddy was 37.

A disturbing video allegedly shows Diddy assaulting a pregnant Cassie in a hotel lobby, although it’s claimed that Diddy paid $50,000 to have the footage destroyed.

Diddy was also linked to unsettling reports that emerged this week, stating the FBI arrested him and discovered over a thousand bottles of baby oil and lubricants at his home.

According to these reports, Diddy drugs his victims, forces them into humiliating situations, and records everything to later blackmail them.

Despite all these claims, Diddy has consistently pleaded not guilty.

However, the seriousness of the accusations has led some fans of Burna Boy, known as the Outsiders, to demand that Burna Boy take legal action against Speed Darlington for defamation.
