“If I wasn’t blessed to be doing music I would have probably been on the streets.
“I am not from a rich family, and I wasn’t raised with a silver spoon, so I feel I was blessed, so I can be a blessing to my family and to those around me.
“I believe if I wasn’t making music I would have been on the streets hustling like every other kid.
”God blessed me with music, and it’s safe to say music changed my life. It also changed the life of those I love and care about,” he said.
When asked how he felt about award shows, Wizkid said: “I have never been a big fan of awards. I’ve been very vocal about that.
“It definitely doesn’t define who you are. It doesn’t define your success, it doesn’t define how amazing you are because at the end of the day, you need to understand that awards are a company putting together a show.”
