Nigerian music star Wizkid shines at Hollywood Bowl
The high-energy concert comes after documentary debut, "Love Live Lagos".
Fresh off the successful premiere of his documentary at the Tribeca Film Festival in June, Afrobeats superstar Wizkid has graced the stage once again, this time for a sold-out concert at the iconic Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on Sunday, June 22.
The "Kese" crooner treated fans to a thrilling night, belting out his greatest hits, including jams from his latest album, "Morayo." Some of his most beloved tracks were elevated by a full orchestra at the concert, adding a whole new layer to the live experience.
Wizkid also brought out fellow Afrobeats heavyweight, Grammy-nominated Asake, to perform their collaboration, "MMS," sending the crowd into a frenzy.
The high-energy concert came hot on the heels of his documentary, "Love Live Lagos," which offers an intimate look at Wizkid's journey from a Nigerian music sensation to a global icon who's paved the way for African artists worldwide.
The film features a star-studded cast of interviewees, including five-time Grammy-nominated Afrobeat legend Femi Kuti, Wizkid's manager and partner Jada Pollock, his long-time manager Sunday Are, Julia Adenuga, and Seni Saraki, among other close collaborators.
The Tribeca Film Festival lauded Wizkid as a "global icon reshaping how Africa is seen and heard around the world."
