“He Pàid N40m For Other Artiste To Come And Perform At My Show”
Popular Nigerian comedian, better known as Basketmouth, has made a shocking revelation about popular Nigerian singer, Wizkid.
According to Basketmouth, that he needed Wizkid to come and perform at his show in 2014 and he was ready to pay him any amount.
But Wizkid told him that he was coming to perform for free and 3 days before the show, Wizkid called him to tell him that he had a family emergency that he has to attend because it was very important.
Wizkid however, asked him to pick any artiste he would want them to perform at his show and Wizkid paid about Forty Million Naira (N40million) for about four artists to appear at the show.
Basketmouth while revealing how Wizkid has a heart of gold, said;
“All these talks about Wizkid being proud will always be funny to me. 2014 I had my show in Lagos and I really needed Wizkid to perform and I was willing to pay him anything.
“I contacted him and he told not to bother about paying him. He promised to come as a surprise guest & put up a show for free.
“3 days to the event, Wizkid called me that he won’t be able to show up coz a very important family emergency had happened. I was really heartbroken but I just had to accept the reality. 35 minutes after that call, Wizkid asked me to contact any Nigerian artiste I will like to book for the event and get back to him with the bills.
“I quickly contacted Lil Kesh, Kcee, Yemi Alade and Phyno. The bill was about 40 Million Naira and Wizkid cleared it all. Mannn! I thought I was dreaming. Wizkid is not the guy social media keeps trying to make y’all believe he is”.
