When I was a little boy, my brother Obex and I used to listen to foreign music. We listened to late 2pac Shakur, DMX, Busta Rhymes, Notorious BIG, Ja Rule, 50 Cent and others. While in secondary school, I found out I was gifted in music, took interest in Afrobeats and rap so I set the ball in motion and put things together. I did lots of practice, freestyles, rap battles in and out of school, till music became a part of me. Eventually, I dropped my first two single tracks. I got the encouragement and support I needed from my family and friends. My brother’s constructive criticism really helped me; it got me through a lot. Late Dagrin CEO (Akogun) inspired me too. I love his style of rap music. He rapped in my native language which is Yoruba. It is safe to say he was my musical role model. My biggest inspiration comes from what I go through in everyday life.

I like football. It’s a sport that connects and unifies the world. I am the Sports Director of my noble department at The Polytechnic of Ibadan. For me, music is fun and easy. I feel music all of the time. It’s everywhere.

I will like to work with many top artistes in Nigeria music industry like Olamide, Wizkid, Burna Boy Davido and many more.

Nothing can stop a good idea and I know I will be welcome in music industry.
