He would later release his debut album as a teenager titled “Stay With Me” under Liberty Records owned by the iconic Pastor Felix Liberty. With a little over a dozen albums under his belt, a string of hits spanning social responsibility and universal love themes, having the highest number of videos on TV and an intimidating consistency as a roots reggae soldier. He is arguably one of Nigeria’s nay Africa’s most thoroughbred reggae Ambassador.
