To some, Kizz is supposed to be put in the same class with Wizkid, Davido and Burna Boy.

Legit.ng recently tried reaching out to the singer amidst the different things happening in his life and music career.

Why is Kizz Daniel's latest album, Maverick, not performing well?

Kizz Daniel recently dropped his fifth studio album, Maverick, and instead of it doing numbers, it is his bouncer, Kevin Power, who has been trending.

Note that the album songs like Cough, Buga, RTID and Shuperu are on it. Yet, barely two months after its release, it has fallen off the radar miserably.

Legit.ng recently spoke to one of Kizz's media agencies, Buqi Media, on the poor performance of the album, and this is what they said:

He/she noted that it is pretty frustrating to help push his brand with all of these pitfalls.

"When we talk to people to work with Kizz, the responses are never good. It is either haaa! that proud guy, or No! I am not working with him. He is too proud."
