In a chat, he disclosed, “Well, I just wanted to do more than just producing records. I wanted to own records and explore other opportunities in music.”

“I have always wanted to do music even when I was in the university. My parents believe so much in my education so there was no way I could escape going to the University. But while in the university I had a studio where I improved on my skill and produced music for up and coming artistes,” he added.

“I was 16 when I started learning the piano back in church and I started music production at the age of 22. I was just doing it for my passion for music with the dream of becoming one of the biggest musicians in the world,” he recalls.

Asked what keeps him going, he disclosed, “My love for music keeps me going and when I see what people like Jay Z, Kanye, Drake achieved with music I’m always motivated to keep going.”

Niphkeys grew up in Alagbado, Lagos State where he spent his formative years although he hails from Odogbolu, Ogun State. The second of three children, he learnt the piano at 16 but it would take six years longer at the age of 22 for him to make his first production.
