"Music has gone beyond an artist dropping a song; you must feel the vibe from the people" - Ceeboi
He could easily take the pride of being called Nigeria's fastest rapper. But Famuagun Timilehin, who is famous as Ceeboi says he's calling it quits when it comes to making rap.
His latest song "Chanel" is currently doing good numbers across online music platforms, and in a brief interview with SEGUN ADEBAYO, he shares the story of his transformation.
"I am simply looking for my own unique sound and selling point," he began. "I am trying to introduce myself as a total package. So I have been working on my brand, sound, and craft in general.
"For me, the wait is finally over and I am taking over the music industry. Some people have been seeing the glimpses over the years but right now they will see the real deal."
The singer feels this is another stage that he has to pass through. "I am a great believer in God, destiny, faith, and timing. I am putting in the work and I can’t wait for God to crown my efforts. It is happening soon. There is a new Ceeboi that people will always want to hear from. The new Ceeboi is about to be unveiled," he implied.
At the moment, he does well, as fans agree with his style. But he feels he needs to do more.
"Music has gone beyond an artist dropping a song; you must feel the vibe from the people, they must show you how much they love the sound of your voice and arrangement of your songs."
The need for change is the result of various experiments that Ceeboi and his team have gone through. The data, according to him points to a different direction than where he's coming from.
My data is showing that my soft singing has attracted more people to my craft; the love has been massive albeit, from different demography," Ceeboi claimed. "The guys love my rap, now I have a lot of female fans for my singing and they have supported me so much. I am on a journey that will soon shock many people, especially those who didn’t give me a voice when I needed one."
