Jada Pollock Speaks Out Against ‘Baby Mama’ Label—Redefines Her Legacy
Talent manager and entrepreneur Jada Pollock, best known for managing Afrobeat superstar Wizkid, has spoken candidly about the challenges of being unfairly labelled a “baby mama.”
In a recent interview with BET UK, Jada expressed frustration over being identified primarily by her relationship with Wizkid rather than her professional achievements and dedication to the music industry.
Fighting Stereotypes
Recalling a defining moment after Wizkid’s Grammy win, Jada revealed how blogs and media outlets chose to diminish her contributions by focusing solely on her personal life.
“When Wizkid won a Grammy, I wrote a statement about how far Afrobeat has come. They published the statement, and the caption was ‘Wizkid’s baby mama,’” she said.
Jada highlighted how this narrative overlooks her role as a manager, entrepreneur, and strategist who has played a key part in building Wizkid’s global legacy.
“I’m not only a mother but also a manager, and I’ve helped build a legacy,” she added, pushing back against stereotypes.
More Than a Title
Jada and Wizkid began dating in 2014 and welcomed their first son, Zion, in 2017, followed by their second son, AJ, in 2022.
Despite her role as a mother, Jada remains committed to her career, continuously shattering glass ceilings as one of the key players behind Wizkid’s international success.
