“Hi everyone,
Happy Easter Sunday, though the early hours of my own Sunday was somewhat embarrassing, unfulfilling, and indeed funny, here’s the gist guys ?;

I’ve always wanted to perform on stage at “The New Afrika Shrine” , I’m not sure why but it’s been on my bucket list for a while now, Well, Anything “Fela” affiliated in the first place forever remains a big deal to me, yen yen yen, (fast forward the long talk so Nigerians can read and go back to their Easter rice and chicken) •
It was Sean Tizzle’s event last night, I was there to do my thing, all dripped like this, See human shild!! Chai! Waited about 5 hours before the MC called on my performance, Not complaining! This is where it gets funny ?, I got on stage

Finally! Normal artiste ting na after the usual “Arararara”, The crowd replies “Ororororo”, Then I said DJ drop it like it’s hot, NOTHING DROP O ?, i then did a little freestyle to buy him some time, “Let’s go DJ” I said again, WE STILL DIDN’T GO O, The DJ didn’t have my song ?♂️. After 5 hours and he kept telling my manager everything was set, well I sang like that and the crowd cheered ?. That was my first experience on a stage I’ve always wanted to jump like frog ? ?♂️, Tell me “sorry” ?
