Jada Pollock, talent manager and mother to Wizkid’s children, has spoken out about the challenges of being defined solely by her personal life rather than her professional accomplishments....Read Full Article >>➤
In an interview with BET UK, Jada expressed her frustration at being frequently referred to as “Wizkid’s baby mama,” a label she believes undermines her entrepreneurial achievements and contributions to the music industry.
She highlighted a specific incident following Wizkid’s Grammy win when she released a statement celebrating the global success of Afrobeat.
Despite her thoughtful message, media outlets reduced her role to her personal relationship with Wizkid, overlooking her significant impact as a manager and businesswoman.
“When Wizkid won a Grammy, I wrote a statement about how far Afrobeat has come.
They published the statement, and the caption was ‘Wizkid baby mama,’” she explained.
“The narrative doesn’t recognise that I’m an entrepreneur and a hardworking businesswoman.
I’m not only a mother but also a manager, and I’ve helped build a legacy.”Jada and Wizkid, who began their relationship in 2014, share two sons, Zion, born in 2017, and AJ, born in 2022.
