QUESTION : We would like to know
what actually inspire you to go into Music?
ANSWER:
I don’t know, I won't say is
one particular reason.
I just found out that as i was
growing up i found myself in the lane and I was doing it
right.
It's not because i was
looking for money or may be my father was broke or may be one
thing or the other.
QUESTION : Are you are not in choir
back then?
ANSWER:
Well i was in the choir as a drummer
not even as a musician but even as a drummer, you
are also a musician.
That was what i was doing.
I wasn’t even allowed to sing, is
just drumming.

it's going to be another super hit song.
QUESTION : Are you planning of
featuring any of these big stars like you did with
Davido on Wetin Dey Remix?
ANSWER:
Well this time i think i will not
say is somebody.
Yes hopefully, if i am going to have
a remix for this one.
Because i might just decide to leave
it like that way but it depends on my fans because
my fans might ask for a remix but
when the need arises we might considering do it.
If yes am sure is somebody that you
will always like it will be your first or second choice
artist.

the title of the track ?

QUESTION : Who is your role model in
the music industry?

say you have no regret taking a part to fame?
ANSWER:
Well regret. Okay for me the fact
you know sometimes. Hmmm no I don’t regret
anything well let just say sometimes,
I get hit by my fans and hmm. Basically, we do
have some little regrets in whatever
we are doing but i love my job and for every reason
is a sacrifice and whatever thing
that is there am going to bear with it.
But sometimes you wish like men i
wish like I can have a private life. Like have it back
again but e dey sweet.
QUESTION : Recently there was a
rumour about you being signed to Oritsefemi’s
record label. MSN to be precise. How
true is that?
ANSWER:
No there is nothing like that is
just because i was working with his former manager
"Danku" a lot of
people hard a lot of things misunderstood but everyone is cool no
problem.
QUESTION : Is there no someone on
your mind like to say, when are you getting
married ?
ANSWER:
Sometimes i was trying to put it on
the rule, try not to expose them, but of course am
just kind of person there would be
somebody there always inspiring you at times
support you and also motivate you.
Because am a man, not because am a musician
doesn’t mean i will not have one
woman somewhere.
QUESTION : Do you think you are
underrated in the music industry?
ANSWER:
Why do people always like asking me
this question every time.
I know my grade and everything in
the industry. Just sometime i just feel like probably
needs to do more like promoting my
work. So in that case am not saying am underrated
on that particular note but so far
so good Wetin Dey is doing extremely well bursting
their bubbles everywhere we dey drop
the hits God dey o.
QUESTION : Have you won any award
before?
ANSWER:
May be like some award in a couple
of time in Nigeria. Basically, I will say what i have
been doing is dropping and dropping
of songs, have really not been doing music
business in the past but for now is
more shows more money, no money, no show.
QUESTION : What words of encouraging
do you have for youth out there, especially
those looking up to you?
ANSWER:
Well is just something , the first
thing i always tell anybody that is coming into this
business, is that, before you get
into this, no matter what you do, either you are singing
or acting or you are working in an
oil company, you know is stage by stage.
Nothing comes easily you have to be
prayerful, you have to be straight forward.
Sometimes there will be a lot of
confusion. Because you just have to be there. You want
to be in the TV. But there is always
a task, the ability for you to understand that there is
always a task.
No matter how much you must pass
through. You must be patience. I think if you put all
that together you will reach where
you are going. Patience is the keyword. If you are not
patience, that means you want to
enter through the back door and you know what that
means already.
QUESTION : There is another
question! How do you rate the Nigeria awards
organisers, are they doing well?
ANSWER:
Well i will say sometimes
it's not fair. Am not going to mention names, but this
particular awards am saying
everybody knows the award am talking about. Whatever
happen recently, you know we should
give award to whom the award is due to and let's
stop the man no man things or
influence because in everything we do God dey o.
Question : What should your fans
expect from you this year?
Answer : yeah, this is my year of
ruling the industry big time and all my fans should
expect more hit songs because Rayce
is ready to takeover.
