His discovery of music
began in high school (King's College) where drumming and beat-boxing
were the usual activities to pass time, giving aspiring rappers the
opportunity to showcase their talent.

After
attending several sessions, he had developed an intuitive habit,
involving fruity loops and cool edit pro, which inspired him to make
beats. Thus the producer was born.

However, after years of
collaboration and music production, he moved to England to study, where
fate would bring him to meet new comrades, T.R.B and J.R. which led to
the creation of the YYME label (YeYe Music Entertainment) with each member being dubbed the title of a Yeye Boy (YB)

In his own words:
"Music
may be seen as a form of art, mode of expression or perhaps even simply
a complement to a celebration. For me, it's a means through which I
unleash an exuberant mass of creativity. Over time, I have been
influenced by a large stock of iconic international artistes and
immersed in the culture of legendary Nigerian performers. I intend to
amalgamate across the history of music with the aim of designing and
reformatting in order to produce a unique fusion of rhythm, lyrics and
melody.

All I inspire to do is offer music as I see it through my eyes, as ME"
