"You know, Champz is my kid, and we adore his new EP."—Wizkid
As he celebrated his son, Boluwatife Balogun, also known as Champz, Nigerian music icon Wizkid revealed a rare
peek of his tender side. "We love it man, he's my kid you know!" exclaimed the happy father.
Following in his father's footsteps, Champz's debut album, Champion's Arrival, is already causing a stir in the music industry.
Champz, 14, makes history in Nigeria by topping charts with his debut EP.
Boluwatife became the youngest African musician to accomplish this accomplishment when the five-track EP, which was released earlier this week, reached the top of Apple Music Nigeria less than five hours after it was released. Additionally, it is number 71 on the UK Apple Music Top Albums and is charting in 16 other countries.
He expresses his emotions and experiences openly in his songs. Despite being referred to as a "nepo baby" by some, he claims that his lyrics are truly his and shares lessons from early heartbreaks in Superstar. He also promises to cherish his future children.
In a lighthearted allusion to his father's heritage, he raps in Grind that his detractors will "regret that my father didn't wear latex."
Sola Ogudugu, Champz's mother, has been a steadfast foundation of support, helping him navigate both life and music.
On social media, she celebrated her son's accomplishment and thanked fans for streaming the EP.
Even though Wizkid's hectic schedule prevents him from witnessing some of Boluwatife's significant life events, she has received recognition over the years for raising him with humility, love, and maturity.
Champz's debut is still being celebrated by fans, who are impressed by his skill, integrity, and bravery at such a young age.
Boluwatife is already forging his own route with the help of his mother and father, demonstrating that musical ability runs in the family.
