The talent manager and mother of Wizkid’s children, Jada Pollock has opened up about the difficulties of being reduced to the label of “baby mama.”
In a recent interview with BET UK, Jada shared her frustration with how her professional accomplishments are often overshadowed by her relationship with the famous artist.
She recalled a particular incident after Wizkid’s Grammy win, when she released a statement praising the growth of Afrobeat.
However, the media chose to headline her message with the term “Wizkid’s baby mama,” which she felt undermined her efforts as an entrepreneur and businesswoman.
Jada emphasized that her identity goes beyond being a mother, explaining that she is also a dedicated manager who has played an integral role in shaping a legacy.
Despite her professional achievements, the narrative around her still tends to focus on her connection to Wizkid rather than her own entrepreneurial success.
Wizkid and Jada, who began their relationship in 2014, are parents to two sons: Zion, born in 2017, and AJ, born in 2022.
