Wizkid shows off multimillion-dollar US mansion

Ayodeji Balogun, Nigerian singer and songwriter better known as Wizkid, took to his Instagram on Monday to show off his latest acquisition – a mansion in Los Angeles.

The 25-year-old artiste had shared pictures of the mansion on his Snapchat before posting pictures on Instagram.

He uploaded a picture of himself carrying a cigarette with the caption ‘Crib so big I got no neighbors!’

The StarBoy CEO shared various pictures showing different views of the house, which is believed to cost millions of dollars.

Dj Maphorisa, a member of South African music group, Uhuru, also shared pictures of the same residence.

Wizkid, who was named Nigeria’s best dressed pop star by Vogue, an international fashion magazine, has joined the league of artistes who show off acquisitions on social media platforms.

The Pepsi ambassador began his career in 2001 and hit fame when he released his hit single, Holla at Your Boy, with Empire Mates Entertainment, a record label owned by Bankole Wellington, Nigerian artiste popularly known as Banky W.

In 2013, he was ranked fifth by Forbes and Channel O in a list of Top 10 Richest/Bankable African Artistes.

In the entire span of his career, he has been nominated for 64 awards and has won 18 of them.

Los Angeles is known to be the abode of various Hollywood stars and foreign artistes; the late pop star Micheal Jackson also had a mansion in the star-studded area before his death.
