Wizkid says he quiet, private person who likes to stay indoors, that is why you hardly see him at parties.
The comments came in a video interview that surfaced online on Tuesday, after fans questioned why he was absent from events hosted by his friends, including Zlatan Ibile's wedding celebrations.
Zlatan had a traditional marriage in Lagos on 24 October and wedded in Morocco last week.
Wizkid said his choice comes with age and experience.
He said he has become more selective about what he wants as he grows older.
He added that he does not enjoy crowds or hanging out much, and that even when he goes out, he would rather be at home with his son.
He said that when things go wrong at a party, such as someone spilling a drink on him, he does not feel insulted, but would simply rather be home.
“The reason I’m less accessible now is because of my personal experiences & age, it’s not about how people perceive me. As you grow older, you know what you want more & get smarter with your decisions” - Wizkid https://t.co/iLsW4EuQPN
