Grammy award-winning Nigerian singer Wizkid has described women as "God on earth."

In a recent interview with Evening Standard UK, the Starboy honcho said that his music is to celebrate women from all cultures, and that he was raised around "strong women."

"To me, women are God on earth," Wizkid said. "God is definitely a woman, for sure. What's more powerful than creating a life? My music is here to make women feel good from all cultures. It celebrates them. They're valued."

Wizkid also spoke about how his upbringing influenced his music. "I was raised around strong women, so it means I cater more for women with my sound, you know?" he said. "Being raised by women made me understand their full range of emotions. It is a beautiful thing."
