On September 29, 2024, Nigerian superstar Wizkid lit up a Paris nightclub to celebrate the release of his upcoming collaboration “Piece of My Heart,” featuring Brent Faiyaz. The event attracted a lively crowd of fans and associates eager to party with the Grammy-winning artist, who continues to make waves in the global music scene.
Set for release later in October, “Piece of My Heart” will kick off the highly anticipated era of Wizkid’s sixth album, “Morayo.” This celebration also coincided with the 10th anniversary of his sophomore album, “Ayo,” which features the iconic track “Ojuelelegba.” Fans took the opportunity to pay tribute to the album’s impact on the global recognition of Nigerian music.
“Piece of My Heart” signifies the beginning of the “Morayo” era, an album dedicated to Wizkid’s late mother, who passed away in 2023. Wizkid has described this project as his best work yet, and the collaboration with Brent Faiyaz gives fans a taste of what’s to come.
For Brent Faiyaz, this collaboration marks his second partnership with a Nigerian artist, having previously worked with Tems on the song “Found” from her acclaimed EP “If Orange Was A Place.”
