Prior to the release of his fifth album, Wizkid teased More Love, Less Ego with the singles Money & Love and Bad To Me. The 13-track album features collaborations with huge artists like Skepta, Don Toliver and Shenseea, and it landed back in November 2022.

Now, Wizkid is touring in support of the album and will return to London in summer 2023. The concert comes two years after his sold-out three-date run at London’s O2 Arena.

Born in Lagos, Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun (known as Wizkid) has been creating music since he was only 11 years old - but it wasn’t until 2016 that he shot to international fame following his collaboration with Drake on the single One Dance. The hit reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 and UK Singles Chart, topping the charts in 15 countries in total.

In 2020, the 32-year-old’s Grammy-nominated album Made In Lagos reached over a billion streams and snatched the top spot on the Billboard World Albums chart, giving Wizkid his first UK top 20. Made In Lagos produced some huge tracks, such as Essence which spent 21 weeks in the Official Charts and achieved Platinum status.

Last year, Wizkid was awarded Favourite Afrobeats Artist at the 2022 American Music Awards, beating competition Burna Boy, CKay, Fireboy DML and Tems.

It’s safe to say Wizkid has earnt his accolades. To see the Ojuelegba singer live in London, here’s how you can get tickets.
