WizKid revealed that he was mentored by Naeto C during his early teenage years.
Unfortunately, his parents were not very supportive of his choice in his career, and he spent a lot of time in the studio to earn their trust, especially his father. WizKid was one of the songwriters who helped write the song by BankyWs "Omoge You Too Much." WizKid signed a record deal in 2009 with Empire Mates Entertainment, which BankyWs owned.
