Wizkid on his relationship with Skepta
I think why the music comes out so solid is because we have a great relationship outside music, we have a great relationship as young brothers in this game hustling to take it to the world and beyond. We’re fathers so we connect in so many ways and everytime he comes to Lagos, we are together.
