So I listen to underground music. I listen to music from back in the day, like the 1980s—the Osandas. I hear a lot of old-school music. I listen to R&B, and the one artiste I’m listening to right now is Wizard Chan; he’s a breath of fresh air in the music scene, and that’s exactly who I’m waiting for and listening to. But I adore Bob Marley. I listen to his songs, too.: Yes, one way or the other.

So that way, there’s so much to work with. I don’t just want to have a particular time frame of saying, ‘Today I want to record’ as I’m leaving this event right now, I could just say, ‘I’m going to, I’m going to.’ I like creating music, and things just start falling into place. Seeing something you can make a living from doing something you genuinely love is beautiful.

It takes a while; one artiste doesn’t just blow up. There’s always a group of support from different people, and I just felt like it was. I feel like it’s my way of paying it forward because I’m where I am today. After all, a group of people decided to support and show love to me.: The primary inspiration behind the song was the legend, Chief Osadebe. I love to read a lot, and I love to read about history and documentaries, music documentaries, and he was an icon, making high-life music.

I’m like, “What country can I go to?” So I’ll go to it and say, “This place seems fun,” I’ll just pack my bags and go. So I’d say the one thing I love today is travelling. That’s one of my high points, and the fact that I can create something for my mind will positively touch people’s lives.
