Jamaican dancehall artiste Skillibeng is set to join Afrobeat star Wizkid’s ‘More Love Less Ego’ Tour.
He was announced as an addition after Wizkid posted the upcoming dates to the US leg of the tour after which the ‘Eastsyde’ boss posted the dates on Instagram.
Born, Emwah Warmington, Skillibeng is known for his unique flow, witty lyrics, and distinct voice. Skillibeng first gained attention in the dancehall scene with his 2019 single “Brik Pan Brik,” which quickly became a viral hit and garnered millions of views on YouTube.
Since then, Skillibeng has released numerous popular songs such as Crocodile Teeth, remixed by American rapper Nicki Minaj Shake, Mr. Universe, and Not. He has collaborated with other Jamaican artists like Tommy Lee Sparta, Popcaan, and Jada Kingdom, and has gained a significant following both in Jamaica and internationally.
Skillibeng’s music is characterized by his rapid-fire delivery, clever wordplay, and inventive use of slang. He often draws inspiration from his surroundings and experiences, and his lyrics touch on a wide range of topics such as love, sex, violence, and social issues.
The two artistes, whose first known link-up came during Skillibeng’s maiden US tour last year, previously collaborated on Wiz kid’s single- Slip N Slide featuring Shenseea.
That track was among the lead singles to promote his recently released- More Love, Less Ego album from which the tour is named.
Before being forced to withdraw for unspecified reasons beyond the control of his team, Skillibeng was recently a part of Chris Brown’s Under the Influence tour.
Nevertheless, he continued to be very active after the North American and Caribbean Legs of his first world tour, recently releasing the video for his collaboration with rapper Nardo, “16 Choppa.”
The More Love Less Ego tour date is set to kick off on March 3 in Houston, Texas.
