His words;

“Omo, me I be Fuji artist o. I use actual music the same way Fuji artists do their thing. I only listen to Fuji, Gospel, Baddo and myself. I’m just making my own more presentable to everybody. That’s where I’m from, I no be from rich family, but me I love the foreign life so my own (music) has to be modern.
“My sound is my sound. That makes it my sound, because you can’t understand it. The moment I understand it, that means it’s not my sound, so I have to keep dipping into my sound.”
