Nigerian music sensation Ayo Balogun, better known by his stage name Wizkid, is well known for being unpredictable and keeping his fans guessing about his next move in the music industry.
Wizkid appeared to have mastered the art of being unpredictable, keeping his ideas quiet and carrying them out while no one was looking.
In a recent interview, he affirmed this, saying that being unpredictable has helped him improve his craft and reveal less about himself than is necessary.
Big Wiz, whose recent album, Made in Lagos, has been submitted for the category ‘Best Global Music Album’ ahead of the 64th edition of the globally acclaimed Grammy Awards revealed that he enjoys surprising people and does not like to offer dates to any of his upcoming music projects.
After indicating that another album was in the works, Wizkid announced that he would be releasing ‘More Love, Less Ego‘ after the finish of his ongoing tour of the United States, but his fans wanted him to specify a date, but the singer claimed he would rather keep the date close to his chest.

He said;
“I don’t like to give dates because sometimes I may be late. But I really hate when people can predict me. Why should people know I am dropping an album tomorrow? Why can’t people just wake up and discover that I dropped my album last week or yesterday? I just love to drop it when people are less expectant.”
According to him, music is a form of art that should not be predicted by anyone, and that he is in a different place in his career right now, and that he can’t offer everyone everything at once since it has to come in stages.
“I don’t like to say I have this song coming tomorrow or I have this collaboration coming next week because it comes with pressure that you can’t deal with it. I just want to give people surprises.”
