“*I had always had a thing for music, never thought it would be gospel, but God turned my story around and now I do gospel music. I’m young, on fire for God and my style my delivery isn’t something you see normally in African gospel.** Presently working on my first album, this would consist of about 15 to 20 songs. I have worked with Bennywise 9 and I am looking forward to working with Ada and Frank Edwards. Musically my role model is a rapper named Lecrae. I see myself being on top of my game, doing mighty exploits, in the industry. Never give up on your dreams, that’s what gonnamake you stand out in life. And remember God first and God always* “
