Wizkid Faces Backlash Over HBO Documentary Remarks About Building His Career Structure

Wale busari02 mins

Wizkid has sparked debate after comments in his new HBO documentary, Long Live Lagos, where he said, “There was no blueprint for me. I had to build a structure for myself.” Some fans took the statement to suggest he was downplaying the role Banky W and EME (Empire Mates Entertainment) played in his early career. One social media user wrote, “This guy is erasing the role Banky W and EME played in his career. Person way Banky dey pick from school enter studio is saying ‘I had to build a structure for myself.’ God sees all.” However, others defended Wizkid, noting that he was likely referring to his own artistic evolution rather than dismissing his roots. “There is no real context to that. I believe he was speaking about his style of music. He reinvented himself,” one comment read. Another added, “Wiz has never denied Banky’s impact, nor can he. Let’s calm down.” Banky W was crucial in Wizkid’s rise, signing him to EME and giving him access to studio sessions in his early days. Wizkid eventually left the label, going on to shape his own path and become a global music icon. The controversy underscores the delicate balance between honoring mentors and celebrating personal growth. While some fans see Wizkid’s words as disregarding past contributions, others interpret it as a statement about his reinvention and ambition to create his own space in the music industry. https://twitter.com/wizkidayo/status/1993031046078906521/video/1
