Ruger Expresses Gratitude to Wizkid and Fans for Boosting His Music
Nigerian artist Ruger has extended his appreciation to Wizkid and the singer’s loyal fanbase, Wizkid FC, for their significant role in supporting his music and amplifying his reach.
During an interview with Naija FM, Ruger reflected on his memorable encounter with the legendary Wizkid, praising him for his impact on the Nigerian music industry. Ruger recounted a remarkable milestone in his career, revealing that his song Toma Toma (featuring Tiwa Savage) achieved its highest first-day streams on the same day Wizkid dropped his acclaimed project, More Love, Less Ego.
According to Ruger, Wizkid personally encouraged his fans to show love to his music. This endorsement spurred members of Wizkid FC to stream both projects concurrently, resulting in a surge of attention and support for Ruger’s track.
The achievement was particularly noteworthy given that releasing music alongside a heavyweight like Wizkid is typically considered a risky move in the industry. However, Ruger’s collaboration with Tiwa Savage flourished under the backing of Wizkid FC, challenging traditional expectations and highlighting the power of fan unity.
