The father of DJ Cuppy shared a photo from the singer’s visitation on his Instagram page.
He revealed that Wizkid had visited his London home and that the visit was lovely.

He is also the First African Pop Star to perform/sell out Royal Albert Hall In London
Wizkid is the first African to not only perform but also sell out London’s most iconic venue, Royal Albert Hall as Headliner, joining musicians like Beatles, Adele, Elton.
He sold out the venue in less than 72 hours and had a stellar performance.
That is not all, as he is also the Nigerian Artiste with the most award nominations in Nigeria, just as he is also the first Nigerian to win three Billboard Music Awards.
Wizkid’s hit collaboration “One Dance” with Drake & Kyla last year earned him all the awards
While the Lagos born music icon, is the first Nigerian to Win an ASCAP Award, Wizkid is also the first Nigerian (if not African), to bag an international award from The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP).
The award was given to Wizkid in recognition of his role in the writing of Drake’s chart-topping hit single “One Dance”.
The musician is also the First Afro-Pop Artiste to Appear in the Guinness World Records
Wizkid is really the first Afro-pop artiste to appear in the Guinness Book of World Records. This is as a result of his contribution to Drake’s smash hit, ‘One Dance’, which topped several charts worldwide.
Although the song is technically Drake‘s single, Wizkid has songwriting credits for the One Dance which has the Guinness World Record as the most played song on Spotify with over 1 billion streams.
