Speaker 1: will never forget, you know. Quite interesting. No, why do

32
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 1: you think American music has embraced so much in Nigeria

33
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: but Nigeria all over the world. You guys are bullies

34
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: and stuff the bullies because really we don't embrace a

35
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: lot of music from other places, not just Nigeria. Yeah, true,

36
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: Why is that? And how do you break through? Um?

37
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: I think, Um, I guess it's just what it is.

38
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: America is is world power, right, like the President of America.

39
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: It's like the president of the world. So the hardest

40
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: hard to the most popular chef in America will probably

41
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: be the most popular chef in the world. Right. Um,

42
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: But I feel like this America is still starting to,

43
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: you know, open up to other genres of music. I

44
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,560

00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: I'm just you know what I mean, out there a

69
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: law because Nigeria music has gone to a point where

70
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: it's really really blown out. There's a huge market. All

71
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: these are starting to make a lot of money, you

72
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 1: know what I mean. From from from the business. There's

73
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,399
Speaker 1: a lot more bigger shows. That's corporates coming getting involved,

74
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: the telecom companies again involved and stuff like that. So

75
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: the market is getting bigger every day. When you first started,

76
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: it was when I first started. Well, I came in

77
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: two thousand and ten. I'm part of this set, that

78
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: the new school set that came in when the industry

79
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: was already you know what I mean, enjoying those new

80
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: school benefits exactly. But before that, I was in a group. Yes,

81
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: I started in a group called ecomos Quad and ecored.

82
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: Ecomog is like the military, the West African military forced

83
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: the body, the military body that you know what I mean.

84
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: Guys West Africa pretty much called ECAMOG and when we

85
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: when I started out on the group was three or

86
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: of us, and all our dads where uniform man. My

87
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: dad was a cop, the other guy's dad was was

88
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: was a military man, a soldier, and the other guy

89
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: his dad was an efforts man. So we just wanted

90
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: to put those names together like that. It seems like

91
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: you guys really support each other in Nigeria, like I

92
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,120

Speaker 1: the body explain to people what what Nigeria looks like,

99
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: because I had the pleasure to go to South Africa

100
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: and it's totally different than I thought. It's actually when

101
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: I go there, it feels like it's it's like I

102
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: would say, like an La Maryland DC. Yeah, the perception

103
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: of Africa is real like yeah, But because I was

104
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: talking a copy about this, the images they've shown us

105
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: to Africa, all these years or the kids with flies

106
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: on their face. Unfortunately, yeah, unfortunately. I mean Africa is

107
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: really really beautiful. It's really really beautiful. If you haven't

108
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: been there, you you can only be as ignorant as

109
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: you know what I mean anybody else who hasn't been there.

110
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: But like you said, South Africa is it's crazily nice.

111
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: That's probably one of my favorite places in the world,

112
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 1: right next to Nigeria and Ninegeria is beautiful. It's hard.

113
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we don't you know, it doesn't get too

114
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: cold like that and we love it. You know what

115
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: means you don't wear no minx out there? What's that? No? No, no, no,

116
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: we don't really do that. It's hard. Oh yeah, but

117
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: in my city where I'm from and Josty gets really

118
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: really cold, so you can throw on the fur there

119
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: and you'd be cool. Still. How do you feel about

120
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,279

124
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,400

125
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,000

126
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: no I Africa. The white rhino was the only male

127
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 1: white rhino left and then secured the twenty four hours,

128
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: seven days a week to make sure nobody kills it.

00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: a lot was on my mom. And you know, typical

155
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: I'll take typical African story, you know what I mean.

156
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: She went through her struggles and we just we just

157
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: went you know what I mean, from a tend to

158
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: like maybe at seven. Now, what's all right? Listen, what's

159
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: the typical African story? Because here in the States, if

160
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: something like that was to happen, a lot of guys

161
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: would turn to the streets, probably started hustling and make it.

162
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: What did you have to do? I mean we have

163
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: those instances as well back home as well. People get

164
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: on the streets and start doing all the stuff that

165
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: might be legal, you know what I mean, or illegal

166
00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: for me, Na, it's not what all big up on that. No,

167
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: that's not really a part of our thing like that.

168
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: But what I just focused on my music when I

169
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: couldn't I couldn't afford tuition at some point, you know

170
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: what I mean. I just became a studio rat and

171
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: I started living in the studio, you know. So listen,

172
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: you know how they got d boys and trap stars here?

173
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: What do they have in Africa? We have like we

174
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: have guys, We have dudes. Man would't really you know,

175
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: I wouldn't really do those clicks and what they say

176
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: don't sound dope. They don't say we I mean, you

177
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: can you can find that. You can find some good stuff.

178
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 1: Figure out what the street life is. I made the

179
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: street life. I mean, it's not all about drugs. We

180
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: love to party. Our people love to party. We love

181
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: to go to the beach, you know what I mean,

182
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: would love to. House music is a big influence there. House, yes,

183
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: and South Africa and the South, the southern part of Africa.

184
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,319
Speaker 1: Your house music is quite big. But where the era

185
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: where I'm from, Nigeria, West Africa, we're big up on

186
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: afric b a lot, you know what I mean. And

187
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: we've been able to cross that over to the UK.

188
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: We artists like the Bond you know what I mean,

189
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: whist Kid in the United States too. Yeah, and we

190
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: just got a stage of south By Southwest. Yeah, that

191
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: was the reason why, Kid. It was amazing. It was

192
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: amazing this year, you know what I mean. They had

193
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: all this from gone off from Nigeria, from South Africa

194
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: and we mashed it up, y'all, we missed it up crazy.

195
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 1: Let's get back to the street talk now, because y'all

196
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: be having to walk like the having to walk around

197
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: with security detail. Who's the security for um? For yourself?

198
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: Security for yourself? I'm saying, who they're protecting you from?

199
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: Just I mean sometimes when you and back home, when

200
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,719
Speaker 1: people stop you on the street as a celebrity, it's

201
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: not necessarily because they want to get a picture. It

202
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 1: might be they want to rob, not rob you know

203
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: what I mean. It's it's not robbed. They just want

Speaker 1: don't want to give that, you know what I mean,

209
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: You don't want to walking around the mall taking off

210
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 1: his T shirts to give somebody. You mean they want

211
