In a surprising turn of events, renowned music artist Ayodeji Balogun, famously known as Wizkid, has declared his intention to step away from the music industry for an extended period.
The multi-award-winning artist made this revelation through a series of Instagram posts on a Sunday.
Wizkid, whose chart-topping track “Essence” has taken the music world by storm, shared that he plans to go on a hiatus lasting four to five years.
This pause from music comes as a shock to fans worldwide, who have grown accustomed to his consistent output of hits.
However, the artist stated that he is contemplating pursuing other interests during this break, with football and golf being among his considerations.
Wizkid’s decision has sparked speculation and discussion among fans, fellow artists, and the entertainment industry as a whole. Many are eager to see what new ventures Wizkid will explore during his hiatus and if he will eventually make a comeback to the music scene. Until then, his admirers and the music world will be eagerly awaiting his return, whenever that may be.
As the curtains fall on his music career temporarily, the artist’s journey takes an intriguing turn, and we can only wonder what exciting adventures await him in the world of sports.
Writing in broken English, he wrote, “Back in 4 years, make una papa chop him money small or maybe five or I fit still go dey play ball now.
“Or make I start dey play golf, fifa or wrestling b*tch!”All of una dey craze! Everybody dey mad.
“On some G shit, I hope you mofuckas alright body mind and soul and taking time out to enjoy with your loved ones.”
This isn’t the first time Wizkid has hinted at taking a break from the music scene. Back in 2019, the artist took to his social media platform to disclose his intention to step away, stating, “Gone till March! Thank you.” Although that break was considerably shorter, it seems that this time he is opting for a more extended leave from the music industry.
