Music has always been a part of my life. At an early age, I wanted to be a musician, but I couldn’t sing. One day, I heard this new kind of music – rap on the radio, and I just made a connection. That’s how I started rapping.
Just before I recorded my first song as what you would call a secular artist, I became born again. My dilemma was where to put rap in my Christian experience. Up until that point, I didn’t know anybody doing Christian rap. How could I get what I believed was my purpose to fit into my new found faith, when everybody told me I was doing the devil’s music?
I met my partner and friend, Soul Snatcha in University of Lagos. We discovered we had similar passions and so we formed a group called, G-FORCE. That was when I experienced the reality of being a Christian rapper and trying to get the message into Churches. Sometimes we’d be on stage at a church and while rapping, before the first verse was over, they’d unplug us. But we didn’t give up. We knew God had called us and that’s how Rooftop Mcs was birthed.
