“How Wizkid ‘slapped my hand away’ at an event in London” – Jamaican DJ (Video)

DJ Magic Jay, a Jamaican disk jockey based in the UK, has shared his account of an incident where he claims Nigerian superstar singer Wizkid allegedly slapped him at a London event in 2018.

Expressing his admiration for Nigerian afrobeats music, the Jamaican DJ mentioned that he approached Wizkid to greet him during YCee’s concert at the 02 Academy in Islington, London. However, Wizkid dismissively slapped his hand away.

He made this known in an interview with Ruggedman TV, hosted by the legendary Nigerian rapper Ruggedy Baba.

“YCee’s concert, I was in Islington at the 02, I walked in, I went to greet him [Wizkid], I said, ‘Hi, how are you doing, Wizkid? My name is Cool Magic Jay; I’m a Jamaican guy who loves afrobeats’. I went to shake his hand, and he slapped my hand away.” He said.

DJ Magic Jay said he would love to interview Wizkid to understand why he acted that way.

“I wanna interview Wizkid. He probably won’t remember what happened but I will like interview him just to ask him questions like do you like it or hate it when you get approached by fans or people in the industry too much…That could be one of those moments he was like ah leave me alone, I just want to enjoy the show”, he added.
