Wizkid Says ‘Jaiye Jaiye’ Was His Most Challenging Song

I must commend Wizkid for weathering the storm coming from all angles quite well.

The Nigeria’s Afro pop star, Wizkid has revealed the song he considers most difficult of those he has written since he started singing at the age of 11.

While speaking in an interview, the Star Boy boss was asked which is the most challenging song he has ever written yet and he replied: ‘I would say, when I made Jaiye Jiaye, I was confused, (wondering) if people were ready to accept the song.’ ‘I needed something to make it really special, because the song was pretty much special to me, so when I called Femi Kuti, he told me he was going to do it, I was shocked, we recorded it on different occasions just to make sure he wasn’t disappointed.’ ‘Jaiye Jaiye was a challenging song.’

Wizkid, who is on his way out of Empire Mates Entertainment, the record label that nurtured him to fame, is currently one of Nigeria’s biggest music stars.
