The DMW’s latest signee, who was featured on Davido’s new album ‘Timeless’, said,

“I was practicing to make a cover of a song, [and] my friend was videoing without me knowing. So, weeks later, when we couldn’t post that particular song, he posted that video [the part] where I was not showing in it. When he posted it, it was everywhere.

“Then, one morning, I saw one text message and when I checked it, it was Davido. I shouted ‘Ye!’ I froze. I was on my bed. And then, I texted my manager.

“He [Davido] was like: ‘Your voice is amazing. Can I have your number?’ Then, he texted me: ‘What’s up? It’s David…’ Then, he texted me on WhatsApp and everything went down. He was like: ‘I want to see you in Lagos.’ And that’s how I pushed from Port Harcourt to Lagos.”
