How did you meet Jaywon Juwonlo?

I met Jaywon long time ago in Festac Lagos. At that time, I was about doing my song called Lanko. So I got Konga to be on the song, then we were planning on putting 9ice on the song too before I met Jaywon. So when I heard Jay sang I was like wow! I asked him if he will like to be on the song he said he would love to. So that’s how we did the song Lanko remix and it was a hit. From there, Jay and I went on to perform at the Kennis Easter Gig. Later Jay was signed by Kennis music. Just after that Jay did his fist single called FILEBE ft. me, Slizzy-E, that’s how we became blood.
