<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of Naija\u2019s hip-hop music sensation, Ojo Daniel Olaborode better known as Danny S understands the depth of the competition in the music industry and appears ready <\/strong>to\u00a0 make<\/strong><\/g> his way to the top of his game with what he described as understanding the industry and playing by the rules. He has become the toast of some established artistes after he dropped his first single \u201c off the light \u201cand has since then seen his latest single \u201cEge\u201d enjoy <\/strong>favorable<\/strong><\/g> airplay within the country and outside the country.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ekiti state born singer who appreciates every hard working <\/strong>musician,<\/strong><\/g> has always been ready to establish himself as far as music is concerned. He was recently interviewed by City People Entertainment Reporter, PRECIOUS POMAA, in this interview he talked about the journey so far and his aspirations as an <\/strong>artiste<\/strong><\/g>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell us about you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My names are Ojo Daniel\nOlaborode, popularly known as Dannys. I am from Ekiti State but I grew up in\nIju Ishaga. I represent the street. Like I always say in my songs; \u201call the way\nfrom Iju, awonomo shaolin temple, all the way from Iju shakushaku awon ijoba\nguru ma guru\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did Ege (song)happen?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was actually God\u2019s\nblessings. Last year cross over night , a friend of mine invited me to a church\nand said we should just go and celebrate the new year and I told him I had a\nshow to attend but he still insisted I must go with him.  When we got to the church we just gave praise\nto God to see how the new year will turn out. Luckily, it was just few minutes\nto 12am. The church we attended was a Celestial Church.  Everyone was praying but some guys behind us\nwere just laughing  and playing. So I\nturned to them and said\u201d nigga gbese masun mama je kankan na candle si e lese\u201d\ndon\u2019t take another man\u2019s problem home, pray!! And everyone started shouting ah\nbaba! You make sense oh. Immediately I left the church, I called my producer\n\u201cshoker\u201d and told him I had something I feel will be accepted by the street. So\nhe asked me to come over the next morning and I did. I managed to put\neverything I have been through and the major challenges I have faced in life. I\nalso pulled \u201coff the light\u201d from my first single which did fairly well in the\nmarket but the energy was not strong enough and that\u2019s how we produced the jam\nand everything happened like a miracle. Right now, I can say that \u201cnigga gbese\nmasun mama je kankan no candle si e lese\u201d is the highest street slang and EGE\nis a street anthem .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know about Olamide\u2019s interest In the song ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well I just woke up one\nmorning seeing so many missed calls and messages that Olamide has posted my\nsong and I didn\u2019t even know anything about it. I was in shock  that he could dance to my song and post\nit.  Though, I talk to Olamide but not\nlike after he supported my brand we became \nfamily and whatever I do the whole Ybnl family support and whatever Ybnl\ndo I single handedly support. I really appreciate Olamide for what he did\nbecause posting that video alone made over 1 million people to download it and\nI know how much I collect in shows to perform that song .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How far do you think Ege has taken you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hmmm, only if I cover\nmy face and go out because if I go to a place where we have about 2 million\npeople, about 1.5 million people will want to die just to touch me, (laughs). I\ndon\u2019t even know what people see in the song but I am sorry to say this song has\ntraveled without visa  .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you working on any new project?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yeah, I am working on a\nvery good banger something  sweeter than\nanything sweet. I call it Iju shawarma. The are so many things, I have cooked\nthem with all the required ingredients, so a lot is ready . <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where do you thinkshakushaku originated from?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Mainland of\ncourse, Iju Shaga . I talked about it in my last music \u201cOff The Light\u201d I said \u201c\nall the way from Iju, awonomo shaolin temple, all the way from Iju shakushaku\nmy shakushaku is really different from the other ones and its unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you think will take over the music industry in <\/strong>few<\/strong><\/g> years from <\/strong>now ?<\/strong><\/g><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The thing is , I never\npray for anyone to go down because I\u2019m going up. So whoever is leading now\nshould keep going higher while we try to catch up and of course, I see myself\nbigger because I didn\u2019t start like this. The blessings is an overdose , so in\nfew years I promise I\u2019ll be bigger .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you think the next trend will be?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are all humans , we\nevolve with time and cannot predict what comes next . it could be anything but\nwhatever it is , we will work it out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
