A Tribute to His Mother

Set for release on November 22, 2024, Morayo holds special meaning for Wizkid. The album is dedicated to his late mother, Jane Dolapo Balogun, who passed away in August 2023.

The title, Morayo, comes from the Yoruba language, translating to “I See Joy.” It reflects a deep connection to his roots and a celebration of the joy his mother brought to his life and career.

Released under Starboy/Sony Music International/RCA Records, Morayo is not just an album, it’s an emotional journey and a heartfelt tribute to a beloved matriarch.

Mark your calendars: November 22 is set to be another historic day in Afrobeat as Morayo takes center stage.
