Again, Wizkid makes history, becomes first African to sell out prestigious Royal Albert Hall

Nigerian singer and pop star, Ayodeji Balogun popularly known as Wizkid, has once again made history after being declared the first African artist to sell out the prestigious Royal Albert Hall in London.

The superstar singer, arguably one of Africa’s greatest music act, in spite of a long hiatus from performing, seems to be back in the performing music business and has done it in a most captivating way.

According to reports, the tickets for the London show were sold out two days before the show.

Although, the capacity crowd had to wait for almost two hours before he took the stage, causing some fans to wonder why Nigerian artistes never seem to be able to be on time, even on a historic night such as this.

But as soon as the singer came on stage, he had an electrifying stage presence and effect that kept the fans spellbound for one hour that seemed like forever.

Barely two weeks ago, Wizkid was reported to have become the first Afro-pop artiste to appear in the Guinness Book of World Records following his contribution to Canadian rapper, Drake’s smash hit, ‘One Dance’, which topped several charts worldwide.
