Rather than try to replicate that success, Bomba make a left turn on Ayo.The album embraces the technological possibility of the dancefloor dominance of Amanecer, but nods back to the adventurous musical and songwriting aesthetics of 2012's Elegancia Tropical, all while moving forward.The songs offer an album-length look at personal empowerment that embraces the totality of human experience.

Ayo (Yoruba: Joy) is the self-titled second studio album by Nigerian singer Wizkid. It was released on September 17, 2014, by Starboy Entertainment and Empire Mates Entertainment.[1] It is the follow-up to his debut album, Superstar (2011). The long-awaited album was postponed twice due to difficulty in track selection.[2] Preceding the album's release were six singles: 'Jaiye Jaiye', 'On Top Your Matter', 'One Question', 'Joy', 'Bombay' and 'Show You The Money'. As one of the executive producers of the album, Wizkid collaborated with record producers such as Sarz, Shizzi, Uhuru, Del B, Dokta Frabz, Maleek Berry, Legendury Beatz and Spellz. The album features guest appearances from Femi Kuti, Seyi Shay, Yemi Sax, Akon, Banky W., Phyno, Tyga and Wale. Ayo was met with mixed reviews from music critics, who had a difference of opinion about the album. Some critics complimented the album's production, song arrangement, and sound quality, while others were disenchanted with its lyrical theme.

Background and development[edit]
Wizkid started recording the album after the release of the compilation album, Empire Mates State of Mind (2012). The album was initially meant to be a mixtape. In an interview with MTV's The Wrap Up, Wizkid said the mixtape would include production work from Rodney Rhymez and Maleek Berry, as well as a guest appearance from Wale.[3] Wizkid later told Ok!Nigeria TV that the mixtape would feature Tinie Tempah and would be released in April 2013.[4] On April 9, 2013, Wizkid announced via Twitter that he would release the mixtape after he released his album on June 12.[5] On June 26, 2013, Wizkid posted a picture on Instagram revealing most of the album's track list.[6] The photo revealed features with Femi Kuti, Efya, Don Jazzy, Seyi Shay and Banky W.[7] In October 2013, Banky W. revealed the album's title and commented on the delayed album. He told HipTV the album would be titled Chosen.[8] In December 2013, Wizkid spoke to iCR8Media about the album and said he worked with Don Jazzy, Dokta Frabz, Legendury Beatz, Maleek Berry, Spellz and Sarz on the production side of things. He also said he collaborated with Olamide, Efya, Seyi Shay, Shaydee, Banky W., L.A.X and Dammy Krane.[9] In May 2014, Wizkid told Fuse.com.ng that the album would drop on June 12, 2014, a day that acknowledges the annulled June 12, 1993 Nigerian presidential election. Wizkid also told Fuse.com.ng that the album would be self-titled Ayo, meaning Joy.[10]
On September 6, 2013, Wizkid revealed the album's official cover and track list on Instagram. A week earlier, he told Olisa Adibua that the album would be his last body of work under Empire Mates Entertainment.[11][12]
Promotion[edit]
To promote the album, Wizkid released several promotional singles and headlined different concerts. On July 29, 2013, he released his first ever collaboration with Wale, titled 'Drop'. The song was produced by Legendury Beatz.[13] Wizkid's second collaborative single with Wale, titled 'Nobody But You', was released on October 24, 2013. The song was produced by Maleek Berry.[14] On December 17, 2013, Wizkid premiered the Legendury Beatz-produced 'Eledumare', which was performed at the 2013 Felabration concert.[15] On March 24, 2014, MTV Base reported that Wizkid was invited as a special guest for some shows in Tinie Tempah's tour of the UK in 2014.[16]
Singles[edit]
On May 2, 2013, Wizkid released the album's lead single 'Jaiye Jaiye', featuring Grammy nominated Nigerian musician Femi Kuti. The song was produced by Sarz and mastered by Foster Zeeno.[17][18] The music video for 'Jaiye Jaiye' was released onto YouTube on October 26, 2013, at a total length of 4 minutes an 11 seconds. The video was shot and directed by Sesan in Lagos.[19]

On June 9, 2014, 'Joy' and 'Bombay' were released simultaneously as the album's fourth and fifth singles. Both songs were produced by Dokta Frabz.

On July 16, 2014, 'Show You the Money' was released as the sixth single. The song was produced by Shizzi. The music video for the song was directed by Patrick Elis and features cameo appearances from Ehiz and Dokta Frabz. Lekan Oladimeji of P.M. News gave the video a 6.5 rating out of 10, adding that 'though a video that lacks a sense of direction, low creativity and could have been achieved with next to no technical know how, it remains a video you might want to see time and over again as there’s always something to smile about.'[25]
Bonus song and other releases[edit]
'Caro', the collaborative single by Wizkid and L.A.X, was added to the album as a bonus. The song was produced by Legendury Beatz. Its music video was directed in London by Moe Musa and uploaded onto YouTube on August 20, 2013.[26] 'Caro' was nominated for Hottest Single of the Year at the 2014 Nigeria Entertainment Awards.[27] It was also nominated for Song of the Year at the 2014 African Muzik Magazine Awards.[28] On September 22, 2014, Wizkid released the Soto Jose-directed music video for 'In My Bed'.[29] The following month, on The Tide's Top 10 Songs of The Week, 'In My Bed' charted at number five.[30] The music video for 'Ojuelegba' was released on January 5, 2015. It was shot and directed in Lagos by Clarence Peters.[31]

The album has received generally mixed reviews from music critics and consumers. Oscar Okeke of Lobatan gave the album an A rating, concluding: 'Whatever the criticism on the depth of his lyrical content , it is near impossible to fault Wizkid on his mastery of rhythm and his understanding of the audience he plays to. His eponymously titled album ‘AYO’ Wizkid reminds us why he has earned our respect and why he continues to rule over the realm of sound, money and girls.'[32] Tola Sarumi of NotJustOk assigned a rating of 4.5 out of 10 stars, adding that the album relies profoundly on the popularity of previously released content.[33] The duo at Should You Bump This described the album as lacking direction, as well as referring to it as a 'sack of undiluted disappointment.'[34] Jim Donnett of TooXclusive gave the album 2 stars and described it as 'weak'.[35]
Ayomide Tayo of Nigerian Entertainment Today gave the album 3 out of 5 stars, concluding: 'On ‘Ayo (Joy)’, Wizkid shows that he either doesn’t have what it fully takes to make creative gambles for an artiste of his calibre or he is pretty much comfortable in flogging a dead horse until it has no more skin or flesh. Whatever the case maybe, his highly anticipated second album delivers little joy to his fans who have waited so long.'[36] Dayo Showemimo of Nigerian Entertainment Today gave the album 3.5 stars, stating that 'Wizkid remains the same old Wizkid we all know on this album, the style of singing is the same, no wow factor, no climax, nothing out of the ordinary, nothing spectacular in Wizkid’s delivery.'[37]Rolling Stone magazine included the album on its list of the '15 Great Albums You Didn't Hear in 2014', and stated that Wizkid 'uses deft, nimble flows to glide over complex beats and he writes hooks that will keep you humming for weeks.'[38][39]
