Adding a rich layer to the night’s experience, parts of Wizkid’s set were accompanied by a live orchestra, elevating the atmosphere and showcasing his musical range.
A standout moment from the evening, now trending online, featured Wizkid performing a rendition of Kevin Lyttle’s early-2000s hit, “Turn Me On.” Dressed in a stylish ensemble of leather pants and an unzipped bomber jacket, Wizkid energized the crowd with waist-whining dance moves that set fans into a frenzy.
