Internet users have recently been amazed upon discovering the true meaning behind Wizkid’s lyrics, “Finally a boy, she was very, very happy.” These lyrics are from Wizkid’s song “Joy,” which is part of his 2014 album titled “Ayo.”
“Joy” is a sentimental song, and the specific lyrics in question have long been known to music lovers. However, the true significance of these lyrics wasn’t widely known.
As it turns out, the lyrics, “Finally a boy, she was very, very happy,” are deeply associated with Wizkid’s parents. It is worth noting that Wizkid tragically lost his biological mother, Mrs. Juliana M. Balogun, on August 18, 2023. His father is still alive.
Following the candlelight procession on October 11, 2023, a wake-keep was held on October 12, and the burial took place on October 13, 2023. The emotional videos circulating on social media demonstrate how much Wizkid misses his late mother.
Cybernauts, in light of Wizkid’s mother’s passing, have unearthed the meaning of the lyrics, “Finally a boy, she was very, very happy.” A Twitter user named We$t confirmed that Wizkid is the youngest of his 12 sisters, meaning he is the only son of his father and mother among their 13 children.
Wizkid’s father, Alhaji Muniru Olatunji Balogun, is reported to have fathered thirteen children with three different women who are his legal wives, and they reside in Shitta, Surulere, Lagos.
The revelation about Wizkid’s family background adds a deeper layer of meaning to the lyrics of “Joy” and provides insight into his close relationship with his parents and the significance of their roles in his life.
