According to him, he wanted to use the clout to get attention but it backfired spectacularly.
The ‘Sungba’ crooner disclosed this while featuring on the Ginger Yourself podcast.
He said: “Before I got the attention, I strived till I graduated from the university. I strived for like [another] two years before people like accept me.
“So there’s this performance. I wanted to perform Fela, so I was on pants and saxophone. I packed like six girls on stage. I asked them to be half-naked. You know, one thing about Nigerians is that once people are naked, they just forget about all the thing that is happening and just focus. But these people [at the concert] stubborn o. Those girls just walked in, then me too. I just walked in majestically as a star boy. I did not know where the first clap come from. The audience was like, ‘No, no, no.’ Everybody, like 9,000 capacity, clapping that they don’t want it.”
