Wizkid’s latest album, Morayo, has made a remarkable entry into the prestigious Billboard 200 chart.
The album debuted at the 98th position, selling an impressive 13,000 units in its first week of release.
This achievement reflects Wizkid’s global appeal and the consistent love he receives from fans worldwide.
Chart Data, a platform known for tracking music charts, shared the news on X, formerly Twitter, saying, Wizkid’s Morayo debuts at 98 on this week’s Billboard 200 with 13K sold.
This marks another milestone in Wizkid’s illustrious career as Morayo becomes his fourth album to secure a spot on the Billboard 200.
Released on November 22, 2024, Morayo is a deeply personal project for Wizkid.
The album is a heartfelt tribute to his late mother, Jane Dolapo Balogun, who passed away in August 2023.
Wizkid had often spoken about the strong bond he shared with his mother, describing her as his pillar of strength and a source of inspiration.
The album’s title, Morayo, shows this connection, as it means I have found joy in Yoruba, symbolizing a journey of healing and remembrance.
Nollywood Actress and Influencer, Priscilla Ojo-Mkambala, expresses gratitude to her mother for her support during her pregnancy.
The influencer took to social media and shared a video of Iyabo Ojo cooking for her, stating that her mother cares for her so much and deserves the best grandma award.
“She left her business, work, and life in Lagos just to take care of her baby who’s expecting a baby soon. I don’t even get to think about what I want to eat because she’s already in the kitchen making me something. The best grandma award definitely goes to her!”
Apostle Suleman joins social activist, VeryDarkMan, in protesting against Dangote trucks in Edo State.
A video of the Apostle meeting with VDM along the way went viral, as fans and followers pointed out that the two had paired up to lead the protest.
It can be noted that more victims of Dangote trucks have spoken about their accidents. A recent crash also killed three people and left Phyna’s sister with a leg amputation.
VDM protested and demanded that the company take accountability and care for its victims instead of ignoring the issues. The protest ended up blocking the road in Auchi, Edo State, preventing Dangote trucks from operating.
Nigerian Singer, Reekado Banks, speaks on his separation from Mavin Records label. It can be noted that the singer left the record label in 2018 by his own choice.
During a recent interview, the singer recalled when he left the record label and admitted that he might have left too early in his career.
“I thought I wanted to do this now. I thought I could do it now. I just embarked on the journey, as many people would view it, prematurely. As soon as I jumped into the sea as well, I realized how premature it was.”
