Kess Adjekpovu, former Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) housemate, has criticised ‘Morayo’, Wizkid’s fifth studio album.
Last Friday, the Grammy-winning Nigerian singer delivered the album after months of teasing.
‘Morayo’ is a tribute to Jane Dolapo Balogun, Wizkid’s late mother, who passed away in August 2023.
In the project, Wizkid featured Asake, Brent Faiyaz, Jazmine Sullivan, Anaïs, and Tiakola.
Kess shared his thoughts on the new album in a series of X posts on Tuesday.
The reality star said he fell asleep while attempting to listen to the album.
“Decided to listen to ‘Morayo’. Sleep catch me. Up and grateful. ‘Morayo’ still never sweet me. I guess it can’t grow on me,” he said.

‘Morayo’ has garnered both praise and criticism from listeners since its release.
While some music lovers have appreciated the project, commending its unique sound and artistic direction, critics have pointed out various aspects of the album that didn’t quite meet their expectations.
Kess was a housemate on season seven of the BBNaija reality show in 2022.
