FLASHBACK: Wizkid is a superstar - Bank W gives reason for signing him

An old video of Nigerian renowned singer and politician, Bankole Wellington popularly known as 'Banky W' describing Wizkid as a superstar has resurfaced on social media.

In an earlier interview recently chanced upon on social media, Banku W gave reasons why he signed the artiste onto his record label, Empire Mates Entertainment (EME) in 2009.

According to Banky W, he saw an X factor in Wizkid and always knew from the moment he met him that, he would be a superstar.

“You know they say some people have that star factor, the Xfactor, just that thing you can’t put a finger on, but everybody who has been successful has always had it.

I can honestly say that the minute I met him in person even before we still put him through the process or bring more music, but at that very moment I knew he was going to be a superstar so yes he is a superstar,” Banky W said.
