An adept creator, he marries traditional Afrobeat's passionate intensity with the sensibilities of Afropop and R&B. His artistry is inspired by pioneering icons like Fela Kuti and mainstream successes such as 2Baba and P-Square, while also drawing on the smooth vocal harmonies and global appeal of Boyz II Men and Bruno Mars.
