“Now look at it today, Wiz has done more in the music business than anyone of us; than me, than M.I, than Kel, than El Dee, all of us who were at that show when i first saw him in person for the first time. But how did he get there, he started by serving,” Banky said about Wizkid in a passionate tone.
