2022 was not short of blessings for pop star, Ayodeji Balogun, aka Wizkid, who continued to dazzle the world. After releasing his fifth album titled, ‘More Love Less Ego’, on November 14, it sold about 13, 000 copies in its first week, while debuting at number 59 on the Billboard 200— a chart of the top selling albums in the United States of America, making it the second highest grossing afrobeats album in history, trailing only Burna Boy’s album, ‘Love, Damini’.
On April 28, he became not just the first Nigerian artiste to headline a show at the Madison Square Garden, New York, but also the first to sell it out when he live-streamed his wildly anticipated ‘One Night in Space’ show at the iconic venue. His performance was particularly noteworthy because it was the first time he would mount the stage after the death of his son, Ifeanyi, on October 31, 2022.
On May 25, 2022, his hit song ‘Stand Strong’ debuted at number nine on the Billboard US Afrobeats Songs Chart, and TurnTable Top 50 Streaming Songs Chart. It was also the number two song on the TurnTable Top 50 Airplay.To say that 2022 was the year of Kizz Daniel is not an exaggeration. Two of his songs— ‘Buga’ and ‘Cough’ were some of the biggest hits of the year, and they enjoyed international acceptance.
