Ranking Wizkid’s Albums from ‘Superstar’ to ‘More Love, Less Ego’

By   Milcah   Tanimu

As Nigerian megastar Wizkid prepares for the release of his highly anticipated album *Morayo*, it’s time to reflect on his incredible discography, which has defined and shaped the Afrobeats genre. Below is a ranking of Wizkid’s albums, evaluating their impact on his career and the music landscape.

7. More Love, Less Ego
Wizkid’s sixth studio album failed to meet the high expectations set by *Made In Lagos*. Despite offering solid tracks like *Flower Pads* and *Frames*, the album didn’t captivate listeners as much as its predecessor, struggling to break new ground in sound.

6. Soundman Vol. 2 EP
This EP, following *More Love, Less Ego*, marks a return to Wizkid’s comfort zone with lush R&B-fusion tracks like *IDK*, featuring Zlatan. It showcases his laid-back star persona but doesn’t quite offer anything revolutionary.

5. Soundman Vol. 1 EP
This EP served as a foundation for Wizkid’s later success, blending R&B and Afrobeats to create a smoother, more accessible sound. Tracks like *Jam* and *Electric* were pivotal in setting the stage for *Made In Lagos*.

4. Ayo
Wizkid’s sophomore album *Ayo* introduced several hits, including the iconic *Ojuelegba*. Although not as cohesive as other projects, the album cemented Wizkid’s place as a mainstream artist in Nigeria.

3. Sounds From The Other Side
With *Sounds From The Other Side*, Wizkid went global, collaborating with international artists like Drake and Chris Brown. While the album didn’t make waves locally, it was a significant step for Wizkid in his quest for global recognition.

2. Made In Lagos
*Made In Lagos* is one of Wizkid’s most celebrated albums, blending Afrobeats, R&B, and Dancehall seamlessly. Its standout hit, *Essence*, featuring Tems, propelled Wizkid to international stardom, making the album one of the most awarded in Nigerian music history.

1. Superstar
Wizkid’s debut album *Superstar* remains his most influential work. It launched his career and shaped the future of Afrobeats. Songs like *Don’t Dull* have become anthems, marking *Superstar* as one of the defining albums of the genre.

With *Morayo* on the horizon, Wizkid’s musical evolution continues, and fans are eager to see how his new sound will further elevate his legendary status in the music world.
