#Davido and Wizkid have showed us times without number that African Music is limitless. Possibilities are endless. They've both sold out over 10 STADIUMS each in over 10 COUNTRIES and O2 Arena. Wembley Stadium and Madison Square Garden should get ready in the future.

It would be recalled that singer Wizkid, had been the first Nigerian act to sell out the legendary event ground in London. His show had been attended by thousands of fans who had always wanted to get a good show with Soco crooner.
