After graduation, Kizz Daniel began his music career by performing at local gigs and releasing his music independently. He caught the attention of the music industry with his breakout hit single, “Woju,” which topped charts in Nigeria and beyond.

He then released his third studio album, King Of Love, in 2020, as well as his 2021 EP, Barnabas which gained him a far larger audience. He later on rose to the spotlight with his first single of the year with his May 2022 track, “Buga.” the song was widely appreciated during the covid era, confirming Kizz Daniel as a prominent artist in Nigeria and beyond.
