Nigerian singer Ayodeji ‘Wizkid’ Balogun’s partner and manager, Jada Pollock, has kicked against being called his baby mama
was recently featured on BET’s Queens of Music documentary, where she discussed her vital contributions to the industry
In a video snippet from the documentary making the rounds, Jada P spoke about being labelled Wizkid’s baby mama despite her achievements in creating a legacy. She recounted when Wizkid won a Grammy for Brown Skin Girl and released a statement about the growth of African music. However, when people reported the story, she was tagged only as Wiz’s baby mama
Jada P dded that despite being a mother, she is also a manager and has built a great legacy, which is evident. In her words: “I remember when Wizkid won a Grammy for Brown Skin Girl, I wrote a statement of the achievement of how far African music has come. They put that statement out and and the caption was Wizkid’s baby mama. The narrative isn’t seen as you’re an entrepreneur, hardworking, businesswoman. I’m kind of more titled as Wizkid’s baby mama. Not only am I a mother, but I’ve been able to be a manager as well and help to build a great legacy and the result and the history of what I’ve done tells it all.”
Jada P’s complaints about her achievements being sidelined for her to be called Wizkid’s baby mama raised some reactions from netizens.
