Ruger’s success with Asiwaju is a testament to his rising global presence, and it highlights his ability to make an impact both locally and internationally. With his unique sound and talent, fans and industry experts are eager to see what the future holds for this promising artist.
During a recent interview with Naija FM, Ruger recounted his extraordinary experience collaborating with Wizkid, describing him as one of the most impactful figures in the Nigerian music industry.
The singer, often referred to by his fans as “Mini Idolo,” revealed an astonishing milestone achieved under unique circumstances.
Ruger shared that his song ‘Toma Toma‘ (featuring Tiwa Savage) recorded its biggest first-day streams on the day Wizkid launched his highly anticipated project, ‘More Love, Less Ego.’ Typically, releasing music alongside a global icon like Wizkid would be considered risky, but Ruger defied the odds.
