Pakurunmo
One of the bangers we got from “Superstar”, Pakurumo was a club-worthy song then and still is.
Produced by Samklef, the song had Wizkid singing Fuji style. The music video was interesting to watch too.
Love My Baby
“Love My Baby” contributed to Wizkid’s lover boy status. This has to be the most romantic song in the album.
Shizzi produced the amazing beat.
Tease Me
Tease Me is another amazing song from the album. It subtly erotic as Wizkid back then was still his in the “Good Boy” stage. This was produced by Samklef.
