Though Wiz had unofficially announced a break from anything music, he wouldn’t dare fumble when a hefty bag comes calling. The singer has been kicking back and keeping it cool ever since he laid his late mother to rest, taking trips and vacationing with his family of three.

However, this upcoming performance gig in Saudi Arabia must have come on good recommendation, as Wiz gave an amazing perfomance when he was in that region last year for the Gamers8 gaming event.

Additionally, Wizkid made history by being the first African performer to open the Gaming event, which draws in over 22,000 attendees. The event so happens to be one of the largest sports and gaming gatherings in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
