Wizkid Cancels Album Release Date over Davido’s child loss

In a show of solidarity with Davido over the passing of his son, Ifeanyi Adeleke, Wizkid deleted his album-release-promotional tweet as he mourns the late toddler.

Wizkid was set to drop his official fifth studio album More Love, Less Ego, on November 4, 2022, but he has canceled the album launch indefinitely upon reports of the death of his colleague’s child.

His action triggered the following reactions online:

@xothehybrid: “Wizkid is so sensitive… Remember when he gave Reekado a knock on the head on Twitter cos he wanted to drop a song when the country was in a tight spot. Most actually dragged him for it.. Some even said he should go beg Reekado.” 

choplifekitchenlagos: “As it should be, a loss of child is a pain nobody can ever ever ever know or feel and I pray we never ever experience it and for those who have may Gof comfort you and give you another opportunity to always be thankful and cheerful again.” 

officialdorine22: “Should we say he is concerned or what!!!!! Just saying no insult.” 

@millyboy___: “Put everything aside Abeg.… death no be competition.We all need to come together as one cos it can happen to anyone.” 

@amakan007: “He’s a father too. I’m sure he can understand the loss. It hits really deep.” 

@millymatt_place: “Later they’ll say Wizkid like to do his things his way. This ni*ga right here felt it.” 

@iam__imma: “E know say the death go cover en album.”
