I didn’t expect Ojuelegba to be a hit song — Wizkid

Afropop star, Wizkid is one youngster whose swift rise to the top wows everyone. The Ojuelegba sensation is undoubtedly one of the most sought after African pop stars of his generation.

On the flipside, the star boy, as he loves to be called hasn’t been quite fortunate when it comes to winning awards. In a recent interview, the outspoken entertainer says that winning awards isn’t his reason for doing music.

His Afrobeat song, Ojuelegba has enjoyed countless airplays and has further added to his star power. He reveals in a recent interview with Fader magazine that he didn’t expect it to be a hit song: I knew ‘Ojuelegba’ was a good song, but I didn’t expect it to blow up the way that it did. My parents still live there. We have a house there.”
