Asake Featured in Wizkid's Album 'Morayo' as Tracklist Drops
Nigerian music icon Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, widely known as Wizkid, has officially unveiled the tracklist for his highly anticipated sixth studio album, Morayo. This project, a deeply personal one for the star, serves as a tribute to his late mother, Morayo, who sadly passed away in 2023. Scheduled for release on November 22, 2024, the album marks a significant chapter in Wizkid’s artistic journey, showcasing his evolution while paying homage to family and heritage.
Following the success of his 2022 album, More Love, Less Ego, Morayo promises a rich blend of Afrobeat, R&B, and global sounds. The album’s creation reflects Wizkid’s heartfelt connection to his roots, his artistry, and the loved ones who have shaped his journey.
The 16-track project boasts an impressive lineup of global artists, cementing Wizkid’s reputation as a bridge between cultures. Collaborators include neo-Fuji sensation Asake, whose unique sound continues to captivate audiences, and American R&B powerhouse Brent Faiyaz, who lends his smooth vocals to the soulful single Piece of My Heart. French rap star Tiakola, known for his genre-blending style, also makes a striking appearance, alongside the celebrated American vocalist Jazmine Sullivan. Rising star Anaïs adds her distinct voice to the album, enriching its diverse sonic palette.
Ahead of its release, Wizkid treated fans to two standout singles. Piece of My Heart, a heartfelt R&B duet with Brent Faiyaz, showcases the singer’s vulnerability and range, while Kese (Dance), an energetic Afrobeat anthem, has already become a favorite on dance floors worldwide. These tracks offer a glimpse into the multifaceted artistry that defines Morayo.
On November 18, 2024, Wizkid revealed the full tracklist, sparking excitement across his fanbase. The lineup includes an eclectic mix of rhythms and themes, ensuring there’s something for everyone. From soul-stirring ballads to high-energy club hits, Morayo reflects Wizkid’s commitment to pushing boundaries and delivering music that resonates on a global scale.
As fans eagerly count down to November 22, Morayo stands as a testament to Wizkid’s enduring legacy and his ability to blend personal storytelling with universal appeal. This album is more than just music; it’s a celebration of love, loss, and the connections that shape us.
