He blinks first. Let's go. | Who's playing games here? |
|
Kanto is the best song in the world. | All right. |
|
Nobody can make a song like that again in his life except for me. Let's talk about what to know. | Inspired that. |
|
Yeah. Heartbreak. | Heartbreak. |
|
Yeah. | Heartbreak. |
|
Yeah. | Your own heartbreak of someone else. |
|
Trying to get something. | Trying to get something bomb. |
|
Someone else's. | Yeah. |
|
I've never been heartbroken before. I have only been disappointed, not heartbroken. | Okay, let's speak about that. Because, baby, you said was inspired by friends experiences. |
|
Yeah. | Contour now a friend's heartbreak. The intro to beginning. |
|
Just like the idea of heartbreak. | Okay. |
|
And the pain people feel when they're heartbroken. | Fair enough. |
|
Yeah. | The intro to beginning. Also a friend. So are you giving your friends royalty for this inspiration? |
|
Um, no. | He said just. You just use your story. |
|
No. | And gives you nothing. |
|
But at the end, like, music, making music, all stems from experiences. | Yeah, for sure. |
|
Yeah. But if I'm, like, singing about you, like, your name or something that you did or something, then you consider. | Tell us about a song that has been informed by your own experiences. |
|
Um, boy. So you can sit till she's back. | Started with rudeness. Any energy I have in this episode, you guys, you guys just see that. |
|
Actually, Police. Um, Police. | Yeah. |
|
Uh, body and soul. | Body asshole. |
|
Yeah. | The one that he used to call My Bag Ugly. That song. That one does inspire his experience. |
|
Funny enough. Like, I actually didn't write that song. I was. It was just, like, from my head. I was just, like, singing from my soul. | You're just freestyling. |
|
Yeah. | Speaking of freestyling, you're really good at that. So can you give us something with my name? Give us your freestyle. |
|
Can you tell me your name? | My name is China, I think. |
|
Uh, why you say China? | No, there's a chinon in your life. |
|
Yeah. A lot of cheese. | I reserved my comment. Like, I want to say so much, but I'm also trying to be a nicer person. You know, New Year Nimi. Okay, so can you give us a free start with China? Not China. |
|
Ah. Uh, you put me on your hot seat. | Um, we can come back to it. |
|
Let's get back to it. | But you do it. |
|
But let's be honest. Was I actually being rude, though? | Just see that. |
|
I'll do it. | You'll do it? |
|
Promise? Yeah. | You guys have seen it's a pinky promise. |
|
Do I cut it? Yeah, supposed to cut it. | I don't like the fact. You know what? I want to cut it, so let's do that. |
|
Okay. | Okay, so we've both done it. Great. Let's talk about your new project. Every project coming out soon. |
|
Yeah. | What can we expect from that project? What headspace were you in when you were making it? |
|
Okay. One thing to expect is, like, um, beautiful music, for sure. It came from a very, very honest perspective. So there are some things I'm going to say in some songs that people be like, hey. They'll be taken aback in m a. | Good way for the rudeness, because, you know, all the honesty given us on this show is rudeness. |
|
No, I'm actually not being rude. I'm actually being honest. To be honest. | Yeah, actually be honest to be honest. Let's focus, because Joy wants to take us off track. Well, I didn't. I don't know if people heard that, because I spoke about it. So I want you to repeat that. |
|
I like the way you look at me. You are not a real. You fold. I got this. | Oh, uh, Joseph. Uh, hilarious. |
|
And she said my real name, like, come on, Joseph. | Do you want to take over this interview? |
|
No. | Okay. Are you sure? |
|
Was I actually being rude or me being honest? | But he's bored. Because I look like Booboo the Clown. Yeah. |
|
Yeah. | Yeah, sure. Very sure. |
|
Very. | Last chance. |
|
Yeah. | All right. You have a lot of amazing songs. |
|
Yeah. | Can you tell us a song you remember really enjoying making? |
|
Nobody. Definitely nobody. | Why? |
|
So I was having a photo shoot when DJ Neptune sends me the beat. Um, and I left the photo shoot. I was like, I'm not taking pictures again. And I went straight to the studio, and I was just like, oxygen mix. Oh, yeah, Alpha, lay down these beats. And I was just, like, singing on it. Like, I think most of my big songs, I usually don't have to sit down to write. | You don't think too much about it. |
|
Yeah, I don't have to think too much about. I was just really enjoying myself. Yeah. And the reason why I said nobody. Uh, nobody was because I didn't have anything else to say. | And it just works. |
|
Yeah. | Look at that. Wow. Speaking of photo shoots, um, you've been giving us a little fashionista joke very recently. How would you describe your personal style? |
|
Personal style before now used to be, like, a really, really, like, simple and just, like, just. Yeah, just really simple and comfy. But now I'm becoming more, like, edgy. Today's one is simple, to be honest, but I just like simple. | So you didn't think I deserved edging? |
|
No. Look at the shoes. | Now look at my own dress. |
|
Okay. What are you doing? | What am I doing here? I came here to sit opposite you. |
|
Look at the shoes. Now look at the shoes. | I can't. Okay. And the shoe is giving small edge. |
|
Exactly. So, like, even, like, just a little bit. So one thing I realized, like, even though I'm keeping it simple, like, I like to. | You can. I like to do something that. |
|
Yeah. | Exaggerate. |
|
Yeah. | You started going to the gym and decided to vex. For us on Instagram. Because since then your shirt has been off. |
|
To be honest, I've been going to the gym from the beginning, but m. I just don't take off my. | At some point sh. You started removing shirts, Joseph. |
|
Yeah. | So this was a question. I just want to say on behalf of the nation, we're sorry. No, vexed. Not vexed. What happened here in the gym. Um, but maybe just wear shirts sometimes. |
|
I wish I'm wearing shirt right now. Like, I'm looking very covered up and responsible, you know? Yeah. But yeah, if you have something, show it off now. Uh, show it off to the world. Shine your light. Do not hide your talents. Spread the love. | So shed lessness with your talent. |
|
One of. | One of. No, no, no. I like the embracing of it. I like the embracing of it. What did you say? |
|
Not easy to be in shape. | It's actually not. So for sure takes a lot of. |
|
Like, discipline and pain. Yeah. | What is your most attractive feature? |
|
Why? | Because I want to talk to you. You don't want to talk to me. |
|
I think it's my eyes, to be honest. | Really? |
|
Yeah. They look very sincere and innocent. | No, they don't look sincere and innocent. |
|
They look very sincere. I don't know about innocence anymore. Okay. | Okay. |
|
Sincere. | Sincere. |
|
Yeah. Like you can't tell the way I'm feeling from my eyes. That's why if I'm like, outside or something. Um. | How are you feeling right now? |
|
I'm good. | You're good? |
|
Yeah. | So I'm supposed to tell that from your eye? |
|
Well, I can tell how you're feeling from your eyes. | How am I m feeling? |
|
You can tell how old you are from your eyes? | Please, I want to hear this. How old am I? How am I feeling? Mhm. |
|
Let me see. How are you feeling? Yeah, yeah, and there. Yeah, yeah, and there. But you're trying to like, stabilize for sure. Okay, for sure. | Okay. |
|
That's why I said I'm bored. So I'm open to talking to you. | So you're just open? |
|
Um, they said it's rude to like, actually for age. Right. | You said you can tell from my eyes, so I didn't know what to say. If you get it correct. If you get it wrong, I won't say anything. If you get it correct, I'll acknowledge. |
|
Okay. I'll give you brackets instead. | Yeah. What's the bracket? Eerie, Erie. |
|
24. No, 25. 27. 25 and 27. | All right, moving on. |
|
Did I. I told you if it's. | Correct, I would say if it's wrong, it's wrong. |
|
Okay, Let me stay in the middle. 26. | It's not in that bracket. I know. |
|
It doesn't matter though. | Wouldn't you like to know, Joseph? |
|
I'd like to know. | I think it's one thing you know, for Mr. Easy to See the COVID you did and contact you, which is already massive. But then to drop Baby, which, if we're talking about Hades debut tracks in this, like your era of artists is definitely in the conversation. Facts, uh, facts. No cap, no facts for sure. Did the success of Baby did it surprise you? |
|
Surprised me like mad m. I wasn't expecting it at all. I recorded that song in Shomole Badge, like Compound. | Paint a picture for me. I'm from Abuja. I don't know what Shomole is. |
|
Oh, you know, okay. Shomole is like, like in. We call it like the streets. Like, I won't say get, but I say like the hood of like Lagos Shomolu Badge, like Compound. That was where I recorded that song. So imagine a song that recorded like in the streets becoming so big. Like when I was recording song, I knew it was a great song. | Yeah. |
|
Like almost all the songs I record, I know they are great songs. But I was uh, like, okay, this one's going to be a great song. It's going to take me somewhere. But I didn't think it was going to be like continent even to now. The song is still like blowing up. | Yeah. |
|
Yeah. | You don't want it? |
|
Like every year it keeps like. | It's a great song. |
|
It's a wonderful song. Sometimes listen song like, ah, let me sing this thing like, bro, uh, you. | Know, somebody compliments you, you can say thank you. |
|
Thank you. My apologies. | Used to work at a pure water factory, which. Life is really dynamic. Yeah, life is really dynamic. I don't imagine it was a great time, but do you have any funny memory from working there? |
|
The funny memory is me running away from there. So how did you run, like, because I can't. I can't. | You're like, I can't do this again. |
|
It was too much. I couldn't. | So there was nothing good about. Even the people used to walk. There was just nothing. |
|
I didn't. I didn't stay long, you know, to like get the salary. | Oh, wow. |
|
Yeah. Because the staff, they were like, oh, my, um. God never paid me for like two months. I was like, eh. I like eh. Red flag, Red flag. So I did like almost a week and it was like, oh. So the boss came and I was like, oh, let's go and drop this bag somehow. Okay, I'm coming. I want to go and get something at home because my house wasn't too far away from like the Pyotr factory. Like, probably want to get something. I never Went back out like another lie. | So I just want to establish Joseph's track record of lying. |
|
How am I lying again? | You told him, I'm just going to get something, and what did you do? |
|
Is that not me being honest? I'm being honest that I lied. | This I cannot do with you. What do you mean, be honest that you like. |
|
Yeah, that's honesty. | Okay, let me ask you something that I want you to be honest about. |
|
Want what? | To talk to me. |
|
Yeah. | What do you think is my most attractive future? |
|
Do you want. | What do you think is my most attractive future? |
|
Oh, like the feature that you like the most about it. | What do you. |
|
Your face, Joseph. | Okay, thank you. |
|
A, uh, very, like, beautiful. | This is too much. You're actually stressing me out. |
