I didn’t know Bob Marley died at 36 – Wizkid

Grammy award-winning Artist Ayo Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid has revealed he never knew Reggae legend, Bob Marley died at the age of 36.

While revealing this in his recent interview with Guardian UK, the Nigerian superstar said he wants to live forever just the way people still listen to songs by Bob Marley who died decades ago.

Following his new album, More Love Less Ego, the multiple-award winner said, “Alongside managing my ego, one other aim for this new chapter is to live forever. I recently went to see Bob Marley’s musical, ‘Get Up, Stand Up!’ I was like, ‘Yo, we’re watching a Bob Marley play, and this guy died decades ago’.”

“The 32-year-old said, ”Bob Marley did so much at a young age I didn’t even know that he died at 36. It just reaffirms what I do, and I have to keep taking this to the highest heights. Because I know one day, they are definitely going to create a play about me.”
