Even into university.

What’s one non-music thing that inspires your creativity?
Watching Movies, they give me a look at different stories and scenarios that I could possibly write about. I get to feel even the emotions that I’ve never felt.

How has being signed changed your music career?
It has definitely put me in a better position to create and reach more people. I used to not be able to record quality music for most part of my unsigned era as an Artiste, often resorting to platforms Bandlab on my phone and live freestyles on instagram.

Well I always knew it was stressful but I had no idea that I would always have to be on the go. A lot of people think all you have to do as an Artiste is record music and appear in videos, but as an Artiste I’m the writer, I record myself, shoot content With my brother, brainstorm ideas, have to find my way to industry events to be able to network with other Artistes & industry creatives and still find a way to focus on and balance the other parts of my personal life, friends & family with the music.
IT IS NOT EASY!!

If you could fast-forward five years, where do you see yourself in music?
In five years, I see myself in a better setting than I am now, able to create better quality music, able to travel the world spreading the gospel of Afrobeats, having an active growing fan base and being Financially Independent. Amen!
