Over the years, Wizkid, has been enjoying successful hit, fame and fortune, which many had thought was courtesy of EME Record boss, Banky W, while the young star was under their label.

Little did his fans know that popular Producer, OJB Jezreel was actually behind Wizzy’s fame and he recently decided to set the records straight.

In a chat with Punch Newspaper, OJB said he hadn’t spoken about it before now because he is too old to be blowing his own trumpet at 50.

Narrating how it all started, OJB clearly stated that he discovered Wizkid’s talent. He could recall how he basically had to push Wizkid around and take him for shows but nobody was ready to allow him to perform because they were not ‘feeling’ him at that point in time.
