I Want My New Songs To Inspire My Kids — Wizkid

The singer, Wizkid after claiming that he is set to be one of Afrobeats Music’s fiercest proponents, disclosed what he feels concerning Rap music.

During an interview with 10 Magazine, a British luxury quarterly magazine, Starboy said the Afrobeats genre is innovative and a refreshing alternative for people stuck with the same sound for years.

Describing the genre as the new pop, the singer said he doesn’t listen to rap music.

 

He said: “Afrobeats is the new pop. I sold two million copies in America off of one song! Even some American artistes don’t have a diamond record. If I’m being honest, I don’t listen to any other genre of music anymore.

“I don’t listen to rap; that shit is boring. It’s dead now; it’s tired. These guys do the same shit, rap on the same beats, same flows,” he said.

He also said that the Afrobeats genre consistently produces high-quality hits compared to others.

In his words;

“No disrespect to nobody. I don’t have anything against rap or any other type of music. I have a lot of rappers as friends, like a lot. So I’m probably the wrong person to say this,”

The artiste, who just released his album, ‘More Love Less Ego’ also said that he regards himself as an up-and-coming artiste.

Speaking during the interview, he said that he doesn’t feel accomplished because he views life from a different perspective.

“I’m an up-and-coming artist. I don’t think I will ever feel like an accomplished artist or person because I see life differently. I still have a lot of work to do,” he said
