Wizkid confirms title of his upcoming 7th album

Big Wiz just dropped a major announcement that has the Afrobeats community buzzing—his seventh studio album now has an official title, and it’s bold, confident, and unmistakably Wizkid.

The Nigerian megastar revealed at a recent public appearance that his next full-length project will be called SEXY. While details remain scarce—no tracklist, no release date, just the title—the Grammy Award-winning artist has already sent fans into overdrive with speculation about what sonic direction this new era will take. Following the emotional depth of Morayo and the introspective vibes of More Love Less Ego, Wizkid continues to prove he’s an artist who refuses to be boxed in.

What makes this announcement particularly exciting is Wizkid’s track record of reinvention. Each album cycle brings a fresh evolution of his sound, whether he’s leaning into Afrobeat rhythms, exploring R&B textures, or crafting global pop moments. With a title like SEXY, fans are already predicting a return to the smooth, confident energy that made tracks like “Essence” cultural phenomena. The album is poised to be one of the year’s most significant African music releases, and if Wizkid’s history is any indication, it will deliver both commercial success and artistic innovation.

As the Afrobeats wave continues its global dominance, all eyes are on Starboy to see how he’ll shape the sound of 2025. Expect more details—collaborations, singles, and that all-important release date—to surface in the coming weeks.
