According to the Cross River State born musician, he is eager to shoot his music to greater heights to become a super star.
“Basically I would say I’m here to take everyone to a level they’ve never seen before. I guess that’s why they call me Emi’Nla; one who moves with the wave of the spirit and not of the human mind. I wish my parents lived up to seeing me make the decision about my career, but they are gone and no more. I have been doing songs ever since I knew words can make up music. It was all about knowing that I can not just sing, but can also send a message with lyrics. That’s like a genesis of my inspiration,” he stated.
Speaking on some of the challenges he faced during the early days of his career, the So Blessed crooner noted finance and visibility as the majors.
“Not being heard was a major challenge I faced as green artist, also financial drawback was another challenge because money is a game changer. Another issue is that back in the days, people could not relate to what I was singing. These were basically my challenges. However, now as an emerging star, I am inspired by Music, the people around me and the vibe of the atmosphere. I’d also love to work with Davido, Wizkid and Burna Boy. I love their vibes.”
