Nigerian international footballer Ademola Lookman has revealed his top three Nigerian music artists, naming Davido, Burna Boy, and Wizkid as his favorites. The Atletico Madrid winger made the disclosure in a recent interview following his transfer from Atalanta to the Spanish club.
“My top Nigerian artists have to be Wizkid, Burna Boy and Davido,” Lookman said, highlighting the influence and global appeal of their music. He emphasized that he enjoys the work of all three stars, who are among the leading figures in contemporary Afrobeats.
The player’s choice reflects the international recognition of the trio. Wizkid has collaborated with global artists and topped international charts, Burna Boy has gained acclaim with his fusion of Afrobeat and dancehall, and Davido has produced hit singles and albums with widespread popularity. Lookman’s endorsement is expected to resonate with fans who follow both sports and music in Nigeria and abroad.
Lookman made the remarks at a high point in his career, shortly after completing a high-profile club transfer and following notable performances in major tournaments, further establishing his prominence on the football stage.
