‘Kese’, released as the second lead single off his sixth album ‘Morayo’ enjoyed immediate success and broke the record for the highest opening day streams for any song on Spotify Nigeria.
The music video is the second from the album after ‘Piece of My Heart’ featuring Brent Faiyaz, which recently won the prize for Best Contemporary Duo or Group at the 2025 NAACP Awards.
The video produced by JM Films sees Wizkid make his directorial debut as he leads a production that features dancers dressed like ballerinas while showcasing trending dance moves in a dimly lighter theatre. The music video also features multiple vixens who keep him company as he basks in the comfort of superstardom.
The hitmaker will be headlining the 12,000-capacity Velodrome Arena in Berlin Germany on May 21 before taking to the Ahoy RTM Stage in Rotterdam Netherlands on May 23.
