“Come and sign these papers without a hustler spirit, you gone lose! Management gone change my password now lol. I climbed this cliff with a bunch of rejected beats.
“Some niggas hate me because of that. When we in the same room together, don’t label me proud or rude because I don’t smile, talk or laugh to your jokes.
“Niggas label my music rubbish because I infuse my Edo language. Because I didn’t follow the usual guidelines to music, because I hacked Afrobeats with God-given melodies.
“They called it ‘Indian’ because they do not understand me. I’m not of this world, know this now!”
