I had a very rigorous time tryna pin this dude down just to get him spare 10minutes of his very busy time.... And at the end, I realised that......

 1..... What's been that bold step you.  Have taken in life that you so thankful you took?
The very bold decision I have. Ever taken in my life that still remains. A joyful thing to me happens to be moving back to Nigeria tostart my musical career because so far, its honestly paid off...

Laugh with freedom.....lol... The first thing I do in the morning is eatcause I am avery energertic peroson. So I eat a lot. I relax and get ideas musically and I just hit up Leriq (ourinhouse producer) and we both head down tothe studio and work out a beat and right after that I throw myself into the bathroom and do my daily activities and back to the. studio again.  I spend most of mytime in the studio.
