Wizkid announced on Wednesday (March 12) that he’ll be touring North America again with his latest studio album, Morayo.

He posted a Morayo Tour Hotline promotional video on his Instagram, with various operators informing Wiz’s customers that his European dates (Berlin, Rotterdam and Paris) in May are selling out fast and one operator claiming, “People are grabbing seats like it’s the last plate of jollof.”


“MORAYO LIVE! Coming to North America. Pre-Sale tickets today at 12pm local time! Use code MORAYO,” he captioned the clip.

The six-date jaunt will kick off on June 5 at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, and includes stops in New York City, Toronto, Baltimore and Houston before wrapping on June 22 at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl, where Wiz will deliver a special performance alongside the Color of Noize Orchestra.

The Nigerian starboy released his sixth studio album, Morayo, on Nov. 22 via Starboy Entertainment and RCA Records. Morayo, which translates to “I see joy” in Yoruba, is dedicated to his later mother, Juliana Morayo Balogun, who passed away in August 2023.

“Best album I ever made!! Now listen! It’s only up from here!” Wiz tweeted last July.

The 16-track LP includes previously released singles “Piece of My Heart” featuring Brent Faiyaz, “Kese (Dance)” and other collaborations with Asake (“Bad Girl”), Tiakola (“Apres Minuit”), Jazmine Sullivan (“Bad for You”) and Anaïs Cardot (“Slow”). Morayo peaked at No. 98 on the Billboard 200 and No. 4 on World Albums.

Billboard Canada Backstage 2025: Interviews With Simple Plan, Gigi Perez, Loud Luxury, bbno$ & More

From breakthrough performers to established names, Billboard Canada's Billboard Backstage series got up close and personal with artists as they passed through Canadian stages, festivals and tour stops. Watch video interviews with Naomi Sharon, Quadeca, James Hype, Durand Bernarr and many more.

Not every interesting moment happens on stage. Some of the most revealing conversations take place just before or after the set — when artists are fresh off a performance, thinking ahead to what’s next, or reflecting on how they arrived there. Those moments unfolded across festivals and tour stops in Canada, offering snapshots of artists at different points in their journey, and Billboard Canada was there to capture it in Billboard Backstage.

Collected here, these interviews bring together a broad range of Canadian and international artists, spanning genres and stages of career. From Osheaga mainstage performers to rising artists and global touring acts, the series captures how artists engaged with Canadian audiences throughout 2025.
