Police brutality, Wizkid speaks on a serious situation back home in Nigeria . It has been 60 years of political injustice , nepotism , madness and corruption at the highest level . It is sad that my son is about to be 10 years old and Nigeria is still going through all these madness.
Pop star , Ayo Balogun , better known as Wizkid , was very passionate about the # EndSARS protests against all forms of police brutality and intimidation . Apparently, he knows where the shoe pinches as he has also being at the receiving end of police harassment . The singer stated his much on Capital Xtra ’ s The Norte Show.
If I didn’ t speak up or use my voice, then I would be a coward . I will continue to speak about things that affect people in their daily lives . I had been a victim of police brutality before I became popular and I know it still goes on. That needs to end . We deserve good governance in Nigeria .”
Asked how he met Damian Marley whom he featured on his new album , Made in Lagos , the ‘Starboy’ said , “ Damian Marley changed my life . He changed the way I live . After the session , it changed a lot for me . I recalled that I was in New York ( United States of America ) promoting my last album , Sounds From the Other Side , and I was asked who I would love to a collaborate with and I said ‘Damian Marley ’.
Then I went back to my hotel . I kid you not, I was at the balcony of my suite with some of my friends when my cup fell to the balcony downstairs . Guess who picked up my cup ? Damian Marley. We later went to a restaurant and talked . The session I had with him was spiritual. Odogwublog.com
We spoke about everything . We spoke about kids , family and other important things . That was a very insightful session for me . He is a great guy with great energy . Making that song was a blessing .
