GridLocked is a daily pop culture guessing game built for Nigerians. Every weekday by 9am, you’ll get six clues, sixty seconds, and an answer only a Nigerian would know.
Today’s GridLocked is a musician.
Guess who it is using as few tiles (clues) as possible before time runs out.
When you’re done, share your result to brag but don’t post the answer so others can play too.
Come back every weekday by 9am for a new grid or subscribe to Z Daily, Zikoko’s daily newsletter, to get new GridLocked episodes, real Nigerian stories and other fun content in your inbox.
