My names Joey and I'm a music producer and artiste based in Nigeria.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I got into music through EDM at first. I was really into Martin Garrix and some other big names at the time. It was actually my dream to perform a live show at Tomorrowland. I eventually shifted lanes and got into Trap music and hip hop. It just became more relatable to me at some point. I tried to learn how to play the guitar at some point, but that didn't work out lol. I just kept putting in work everyday for over 5 years, and now I'm here.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I technically haven't lol. But I did perform a Trap song with some of my friends during a high school talent show. That was definitely one of the worst decisions I ever made lmao. I was a really shy kid, so it was nerve wrecking for me. I'm low key glad I did it though. I probably wouldn't have an issue performing live now, since I've managed to build up my confidence over the years. I'm actually kind of looking forward to it.
Your musical influences
I'm influenced by a lot of producers. Some of them being ; Metro Boomin, Southside, Wondagurl e.t.c. I love to take inspiration for everybody. But my biggest inspiration and motivation in music has to be Kendrick Lamar. That's my GOAT.
What equipment do you use?
HP Pavilion gaming laptop, M audio BX5 monitors, and Audio Technica headphones. All you honestly need is a solid laptop and some good headphones.
Anything else?
I really appreciate everyone who supports me and shows me love. I hope you can join me on this journey to the top. Thank you.
