“It was one of his cousins that connected us via social media. He wasn’t even known then. We were just two Nigerian guys that loved music that got connected.”
“He acted around us like one of those poor kids. But when I pulled up to his dad’s crib, I was surprised. There’s money and there’s money!”
“I was just so taken aback because at the time, my mind didn’t used to move like Davido had money. He used to blend in with us. When I saw the tower, I was like, okay, they’re rich.”
