Popular singer and music producer, Wizboy has averred that most of his motivational songs were inspired by life experiences and struggles.

In an interview with Potpourri, he said:” ⁠I can’t really pinpoint a particular sad incident that inspired a hit song, but most of my motivational songs were born out of life experiences and struggles. Infinity is a good example. When I graduated from the university there was a lot of pressure to go get a job because I was barely getting by, there was serious financial stress. But I kept assuring my parents that the music thing was going to work. At some points it felt like blind optimism and it was depressing sometimes, but I kept going. That drive and determination inspired me to record the song “Infinity”.

Reflecting on his journey, he highlighted a defining chapter in his music career: “There’s been several milestone moments in my career. One that surely stands out is the AFCON 2015 in Equatorial Guinea. I was honored to be one of the creators of the theme song and I got to perform alongside other African artists during the opening and closing ceremonies of the tournament. It was a great experience.”
