Wizkid began recording songs for his debut album, "Superstar", several months prior to the June 12, 2011 release. The album features guest appearances by Banky W, Skales, D'Prince, and Wande Coal. The album's production was handled by E-Kelly, Jay Sleek, Shizzi, DJ Klem, Sunny Nweke, Q-Beats and Samklef; the latter produced 6 tracks on the album. Following the route Nigerian musicians take when releasing albums, Wizkid hosted a concert at the Eko Hotel & Suites' Expo Hall on June 12, 2011. The concert featured Banky W, Skales, Tuface Idibia, Samklef, Wande Coal, D’Prince, Olamide, ELDee, Jesse Jagz, Ice Prince, Lynxx, and Seyi Shay.Wizkid is currently working on a sophomore album scheduled to be released in 2013. According to MTV Base, the album "has suffered from a pushed back release date". Wizkid posted a photo of what is believed to be the unofficial tracklist of his upcoming project. The upcoming album will allegedly feature guest appearances by Don Jazzy, Banky W, Femi Kuti, Seyi Shay, Efya, and Olamide. Moreover, the upcoming album allegedly houses 12 tracks. Two audio recordings, "Jaiye Jaiye" and "Talk", have been released since the Star Boy uploaded the aforementioned photo to his Twitter account. On July 29, 2013, Wizkid released a song entitled "Drop" featuring American rapper Wale. The song was produced by Legendary Beatz. There's still no word on whether the song will be on the upcoming album. In addition, "Azonto", the single many people thought was the first single wasn't included on the aforementioned tracklist. A snippet of the "Don't Dull Remix" featuring Senegalese American sensation Akon was leaked to the public in 2011.
Star boy, Wizkid tweeted about his soon to be released Jaiye Jaiye music video directed by Sesan and to him the video looks top-notch. I just hope Wizkid is not indirectly dissing Davido with this tweet! Waiting for Davido’s response
