Why Music production?
It’s what I enjoy doing, although I studied petroleum engineering as my father insisted I must complete my college education. Music has always been my first love; the feeling of being able to turn imagination into reality that has multiple effects on people is a wonderful feeling. It’s amazing actually.

How would you describe your style of production?
Originality. I listen to a lot of original musicians. And focus more on making original African music that can stand the test of time (evergreen)
Soke & Sanko is considered to be your best pieces yet can you tell us how the idea behind them came about most especially the production part?
Sanko was actually one take freestyle from Timaya on a beat I had made in 2013; we actually did the editing together. Timaya Is an amazing person and I learnt quite a lot about making commercial Nigerian music from him. Runtown heard soke beat first and told me to get burnaboy on that record. He said this beat is a burna boy hit. Song was done in less than an hour.

Do you get royalties for some of the records you produced?
Yes.

Should we be expecting a personal project from you anytime soon?
Yeah, maybe, lol

Do you sing?

Burnaboy- soke
DJ exclusive – jam it ft Timaya and 2face
Ketchup- pampam
