Wizkid Reveals He Wants Asake to Perform at His Wedding — Calls Him “A Blessing to African Music”
Nigerian music icon, Ayodeji Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, has shared an exciting detail about his long-anticipated wedding — and it involves none other than YBNL superstar Asake.
During a recent appearance on Apple Music Radio with Asake and DJ Tunez, Wizkid revealed that he has a special request for the singer: he wants Asake to perform “Remember” on his wedding day. According to him, although Asake’s breakout hit “Omo Ope” made him a fan instantly, “Remember” holds a deeper connection for him.
Wizkid did not stop there. He praised Asake’s vocal uniqueness, describing him as “one of the most special voices from Africa and in the world at large.” He added that the “Lonely At The Top” crooner is “a blessing to African music.”
The Starboy boss, who is currently in a romantic relationship with his manager and third baby mama, Jada P, has been teasing his wedding for years. With three children already together, fans have long wondered when the big celebration will finally happen — and now, there’s a new exciting detail to look forward to.
Opinion: A Moment Fans Didn’t Know They Needed
Wizkid’s revelation may seem casual, but it carries an interesting cultural significance. Nigerian weddings thrive on music, emotion, and iconic performances — and having Asake on the star-studded lineup would be nothing short of historic.
Both artists represent different eras of Afrobeats evolution:
Wizkid, the global trailblazer with over a decade of influence
Asake, the sonic disruptor redefining modern Afro-fusion with Fuji-infused vocals
Bringing these two worlds together on one wedding stage isn’t just sentimental — it’s symbolic. It highlights the brotherhood and mutual respect shaping today’s Nigerian music industry, where competition exists, but collaboration shines brighter.
If Wizkid truly goes ahead and seals his wedding with an Asake performance of “Remember”, it may just become one of the most memorable celebrity wedding highlights of the decade.
For now, fans will continue waiting, watching, and hoping that this long-teased wedding finally becomes reality — with Asake standing at the mic, delivering the soundtrack to Starboy’s next chapter.
