First To Know
“This album is my best work yet,” he tells Apple Music. “It tells my transition story from a hood boy to a king! Each song contains episodes of trials, tribulations, pain, joy, happiness and fulfilment. I got to collaborate with some international stars like Knucks from London and Doeboy from South Africa and that’s a great feat plus my brothers from Nigeria OdumoduBlvck, Blaqbonez, Victony and many more.
“I dedicate the album to my late dad and late friend Tidinz and to every hustler in the street live like a kind for you are one. The throne you sit on is your own destiny!”
