Quotes
I think I’m under pressure to create music not because I’ve created good music for other people but because I generally I love to create and be the best. I don’t put myself under any kind of pressure or to create an album to meet a certain standard. I am happy with my music because it’s sincere more than anything else and I am at peace. I say to myself, did I do right and that’s all that matters.
Cobhams: I think that as a people on many levels we have been wounded and made to feel like we don’t deserve better. We need to repair our system to make it better. I feel like the mind of the average Nigerian can be reoriented. We need a different level and measure of self-worth. We can be better than any other person on this planet because we are a naturally gifted and talented people. We just need to find the need to do better for ourselves.
Cobhams: Just the simple frustrations of living in Nigeria. You look at your diesel, the lack of power, you look at training and how people say they are this and that and can’t deliver on that level. And how you cant take the average person’s word for it. When they say they are coming this minute and you end up waiting for five hours for them and they don’t show up. You look at the dishonesty, the struggle, how you spend so much time trying to do so much and end up doing so little. I just got to the point when I just needed to breathe and live differently.
I am who I am because of the kind of love I was shown by my family
