Famous American singer, Chris Brown expresses his undying gratitude towards Nigerian superstar Wizkid while recounting his generous gesture.
In a post shared by Luthortv, Chris Brown referred to Wizkid as his “brother for life” while speaking about how his kindness left a lasting impression on him.
He revealed that despite performing across America throughout his career, he had never had the opportunity to perform in the UK until Wizkid invited him to his O2 Arena concert in 2021.
Aside from the invitation, he also covered all of Brown’s expenses, which deeply moved the American singer.
“Wizkid invited me to my biggest stage in the UK in 10 years. I had been performing all around America and had not gone there for any show before.
“One day, Wiz called and told me he was getting everything set for me to come to his 02 Arena concert. He paid for everything, and I was wowed. Wizkid is my brother for life,” he stated.
Notably, Brown’s absence from the UK stage was a result of a ban imposed in 2009 after he pleaded guilty to assaulting his then-girlfriend, Rihanna.
The UK government reportedly cited his conviction as the reason for denying him entry in 2010, preventing him from performing in the country for several years.
The 2021 O2 Arena concert, where Wizkid brought Chris Brown on stage, marked a significant moment in his career, and Brown has continued to express his deep appreciation for Wizkid’s support.
Their friendship, built on mutual respect and love for music, has cemented their bond, and Chris Brown’s emotional acknowledgement of Wizkid has touched many fans.
