Anaïs Cardot talks about working with Wizkid on “Slow” off Morayo.
“One day at 3am I received a message that Wizkid would like to meet me, I didn’t believe it so I hesitated a bit, I called my friend and my sister and they encouraged me to go ahead and meet him. I doubted the authenticity of the message till I was at the entrance of the studio where I finally met him. I was very shy but him and his team did everything possible to make me feel comfortable. He even went out of his way to get me a left handed guitarist in the neighborhood because I’m left handed.
Wizkid is an artist I grew up listening to, both in Gabon and across Africa more broadly. Meeting him in person and seeing someone who had played such a major role in my musical world was truly impressive”
