Nigerian superstar Wizkid has thrilled fans with the release of his highly anticipated single, Piece of My Heart, featuring American singer-songwriter Brent Faiyaz. The soulful track dropped on Friday, setting the stage for Wizkid’s upcoming album, Morayo, which is slated for release on November 22.
The new song marks a return for the Grammy-winning artist, who has kept a relatively low profile in the music scene this year, only making appearances in a few collaborations. His latest single with Faiyaz combines the vibrant Afrobeats sound that has made Wizkid a global sensation with Faiyaz’s smooth R&B vocals, creating a unique blend that appeals to both audiences.
Wizkid initially announced the release of Piece of My Heart through his Instagram page, generating excitement among his followers. The announcement built anticipation for the track, which fans eagerly awaited. Upon its release, the song quickly began to generate buzz, with many listeners praising its rich and emotive sound.
Produced by P2J and Dpat, the track features heartfelt lyrics that express themes of love, passion, and connection.
Brent Faiyaz’s emotional delivery of the chorus, “Nothing can tear us apart, you’ve got a piece of my heart,” resonates deeply with listeners, while Wizkid’s signature vocal style adds depth to the song’s message.
The chemistry between the two artists is evident, creating a seamless musical experience that fans have welcomed with open arms.
Speaking about the collaboration, Wizkid shared on social media how excited he was to work with Faiyaz, known for his soulful and introspective music style.
“It’s a blessing to create with a talent like Brent. We made something special with Piece of My Heart, and I can’t wait for everyone to hear what’s coming next with Morayo,” he wrote.

The track has been well-received by fans and critics alike, many of whom have praised its smooth production and the emotional depth of the lyrics. Piece of My Heart is not just a preview of what is to come from Morayo but also a testament to Wizkid’s ability to continually evolve his sound while staying true to his Afrobeats roots.
The single also serves as a teaser for Wizkid’s upcoming album Morayo, which has been the subject of speculation and excitement among his fanbase. This year, while Wizkid has kept a relatively low profile in terms of solo releases, he has been featured in collaborations like MMS with Asake from his third album Lungu Boy, and Work Me Out with Shenseea on her album Never Gets Late Here. These features kept fans engaged, but Piece of My Heart is being seen as a long-awaited solo effort that showcases Wizkid’s unique artistry.
The anticipation surrounding Morayo has only grown following the release of Piece of My Heart. Fans have flooded social media with reactions, sharing their excitement for the full album.
One fan tweeted, “Wizkid and Brent Faiyaz on a track together? Pure magic! Can’t wait for the rest of the album.”
