He said; “What made it easy for me to blend with Nigerian street music is that I grew up in South-East London, Peckham to be precise. That is like small Lagos, you know what I mean?”

“And all my life in England, my dad banned speaking English in the house. So, we had to speak Yoruba and all these Yoruba stuff. I still listen to Fuji.”

“We eat African foods. Even though I’m in England, it was like I’m still in Nigeria. Yeah, it was easy for me.”

“When I came back to Nigeria, people didn’t really know I came from London.”
