Afrobeats superstar Ayodeji “Wizkid” Balogun has once again sent fans into wedding speculation mode after revealing the exact song he wants at his big day – and the artiste he wants performing it live. During a recent Apple Music radio appearance with Asake and DJ Tunez, Wizkid said he wants Asake to perform “Remember” at his wedding.
Wizkid explained that Asake’s breakout track “Omo Ope” turned him into a fan from first listen, but it is the more reflective “Remember” that stole his heart and earned a permanent place on his imaginary wedding playlist. The Starboy boss called the song “an amazing record” and told Asake directly on air that it has to be played on his wedding day.
Big Wiz did not stop at song choices. He went on to shower Asake with heavy compliments, describing him as one of the most special vocalists in Africa and even the world. According to him, Asake’s voice is a blessing to African music and proof that the new wave of Afrobeats talent is here to stay.
This is not the first time Wizkid has teased an upcoming wedding, and social media users again joked that Starboy has been “planning” this wedding for years. Still, his comments have added fresh fuel to fan fantasies about a high-profile Starboy ceremony – with Asake on the mic and “Remember” as the soundtrack.
