American rapper Wiz Khalifa has stirred debate after announcing himself as the new “Big Wiz,” a nickname long associated with Nigerian superstar Wizkid.
In an Instagram story, Wiz Khalifa wrote, “Call me Big Wiz from now on,” a declaration that quickly went viral and drew mixed reactions across social media and the music industry.
Wizkid has been widely recognized as “Big Wiz” for years, a title closely tied to his international music brand.
Fans and industry insiders are divided—some see Khalifa’s claim as a playful tribute, while others view it as an attempt to challenge Wizkid’s established identity.
