 His cover made the waves in the local Lagos music scene before he went on a self-discovering journey developing himself for a seven-year period. Upon his return to the music scene in 2019, he released “Shaye” a single that has massive airplay in Nigeria. 

With that energy he also dropped “Rabata” and “Stuck in my ways” in December 2019 and January 2020 respectively ; which made the rounds in several radio stations in Nigeria and the UK.

 He is currently gearing up to release the lead single, Shutdown off his forthcoming debut project, BABALAWOBABS the EP slated to drop in March 2021.
