There’s no other way to say it, Starboy shut down London last night. What’s the definition of shut down? Being the first African to sell out the Royal Albert Hall, that’s what.
Since Wizkid’s performance last night, Twitter has been chirping away in exhilaration. As usual, the Wizkid army says he’s overtaken Fela as a legend. Hold on while I put on my blank face.
Silly arguments on TwitterNG aside, Wizkid definitely gave his fans a night to remember- and we commemorate that with this thread.

Wizkid on the Map!
Not sure Royal Albert ever had these number of Black people in this hall, when I come here for BBC symphony orchestra,it is always white
Wizkid to the world!!!

Now that I have recovered @wizkidayo last night was too special
And when he brought out Wande Coal
My soul was feeling everything
Wow, a night I’ll never forget
History was made YESTERDAY Your da plug @wizkidayo
I LOVE YOU!!
Best concert I’ve ever attended. Wizkid. @wizkidayo
Over 5k tickets sold!
Performed with a band with no backup singers!
It was not just a gathering of Africans living in the U.K!@wizkidayo
Let’s talk Ojuelegba
It’s very obvious that Wizkid’s favorite song is “Ojuelegba”. Maybe because the song pushed him to the international sphere
Wizkid killing with the classics. London is having mad fun.
Wande Coal
Shoutout to @wizkidayo for bringing me out yesterday. Royal Albert Hall was proper lit. Thank you London for making it a great show. #Iskaba
L.E.G.E.N.D
Prayer still works!! Congratulation @wizkidayo This is just the beginning! Legend in the making Keep creating and breaking records
There is no debate , wizkid is a legend. Bless up
Fam when you listen to how many hit songs wizkid has performed on that stage for more than 2 hours now nonstop. Don’t ever compare him.
The word is out..it is final..and we are convinced..Wizkid @wizkidayo is officially an AFRICAN LEGEND
I’ve said it before, Wizkid and Olamide are the only Naija acts that’ll perform for 5hrs without running out of songs.
2 hours of HITs on stage. @wizkidayo History !!!! We will not forget. The real #Starboy
Not Wizkid’s mate
Ojuelegba which was the turning point for wizkid was recorded under EME.
But lets downplay the influence of Banky W.
Fela had an international record deal in the 70s o
Talking Universal and Co.
No one is undermining Wizkid but abeg dont compare him to fela
People dont even know the Yeah Yeah Wizkid tells his crowd to say was from Fela. Lol.
There are some things you just don’t do , ever.
Comparing Wizkid to Fela is one of them.
What a ride
Shoutout to @wizkidayo for bringing me out yesterday. Royal Albert Hall was proper lit. Thank you London for making it a great show. #Iskaba
From Mushin to Mo’Hits to drama to hiatus to comeback to Royal Alberta Hall!!!
This God is too much!!!
Nobody coulda scripted it beta!
Wizkid sells out London’s most iconic venue. Tiwa on BBC Top 100 Women. Okocha voted as the greatest player in Reebok/Macron Stadium.
Daddy, we made it!
