Watch the Video for Wizkid's New Single 'Ghetto Love'
The dancehall-inspired track is the perfect way to usher in the weekend.
While Wizkid has stayed relevant throughout the year by jumping onto a number of massive tracks including "Brown Skin Girl" with Beyoncé, "I like" with Kojo Funds and "Dis Love" with DJ Spinall and Tiwa Savage, he's finally dropped an official single along with the music video for this year. After teasing fans that he'd drop the anticipated "Joro", the artist has switched things up and instead brought us "Ghetto Love" ahead of his upcoming album. If you ask us, it's definitely a banger.

"Ghetto Love" sees Wizkid staying true to his dancehall-inspired sound. The track, which was produced by both Killertunes and Kel P, has an incredibly infectious beat and catchy lyrics you'll be singing along to in no time.
Wizkid keeps the music video itself pretty simple. The opening scenes show him walking with his entourage until he stops by a chair where a cassette tape has been left on top of it. The following scene shows a little boy, presumably the younger version of the artist, sitting in a boat and placing the same cassette tape into a small music player. The scenes switch between Wizkid singing in the recording studio and his younger self doing the same in the make-shift studio of his bedroom. Overall, this is definitely another hit from the Nigerian superstar.
