Excerpts:
I
run a fashion house and other handful of investments.
Are you a song writer?
Oh
yeah, I write songs for many artistes .
What was the genesis of your passion for acting?
Yeah,
(coughed) hmmmm I started acting when I was eight years old. It started in my
church with the Juvenile Drama Group. So, I had passion for acting right from
day one but I officially joined the acting world in 2007. Acting has been part
of me and I was motivated by the Mount Zion movies back then, remember?
(giggled)
Name some of the movies you have starred in?
Oh
I can’t list all but I can recall few like " Orin Dola a movie produced by
Okele, Zoobomania produced by Bisola Balogun, Teach Oko, Esan, Iyawo Ajanpe,
The Activist, Ika Lokunrin, Okiki, Akpors and many others" .
How do you blend song writing, acting and movie production?
I
give thanks to God . With the support of my brother Joba and my manager Shola
Adeniyi, I walk through everything.
As a song writer, which songs have you dropped lately?
None
. But I’m dropping a new single this year titled Sisi Monika produced by
FreestyleK and mixed by Indomix.
Tell us about your 02Gang Records?
02Gang
Records is growing wide day by day and I give thanks to God and my fans . We
have a recording studio and great crew . On the label , I have two artistes .
One of them dropped a video last few months and still trending on Hip TV and
other channels , YouTube and social media. Sisi Coke is a female artiste , she
was recently signed on the label and she will be dropping her first new single
this year . Sisi Monika is the first musical video I’m dropping. And it was
directed by Ist Xpression Visuals.
What really inspired your song Sisi Monika?
Hmm,
seriously Instagram did. I used to see ladies post pictures with big asset
behind on pant or short. I was on someone’s page and didn’t realize I looked at
1074 pictures because they all comprises of asset front and back. So, I decided
to do something on Sisi Monika. Thou it was crazy but hmmm it was fun (smiled).
What actually thrills you most about your musical career?
