Jaguda
The street realities and the crucibles expected in a Lagos themed album is totally absent. It’s as though, the songs and the album title were separately chosen. But still a good listening.
-
Pitchfork
The Afrobeats star balances the formula to unite home and abroad with big pop songs that can compete across cultures and an underlying theme that embraces his roots.
-
The Guardian
The Afrobeats star’s fourth album is his most sophisticated yet.
-
Pulse Nigeria
‘Made In Lagos’ is Wizkid’s most cohesive body of work - both topically and sonically.
-
NME
star quality and a sense of homecoming.

Euphorazine
Given the political situation on the ground in Nigeria for WizKid to deliver such a bright and potent album feels timely. A smooth jazzy saxophone seems to narrate the body of work equally as much as WizKid’s effortless melodic patterns. The album makes you want to zone in with a partner and have a wifed-up Sunday with lovemaking and cooking good food.

Ratings Game Music
If you are someone who appreciates a cohesive body-of-work that makes it a mission to make afropop and R&B music play nice with one another, you will appreciate Made In Lagos.

Clash Magazine
the album displays a maturity in WizKid and his growth can be heard as he marries easy listening and warm upbeat tempos across his fourth studio album.
