I like him and wish to own a record label and help many other talented artistes on the streets who are not as privileged as I was during my early days in my music career. I equally love the fancy lifestyle of him and I pray to be self-sufficient like the legendary American rapper as a musician,” Fricky J said.
The ‘Calabar Girls’ crooner also disclosed the two prominent Nigerian artistes he dreams to have a music collaboration with. His pick of the lot in Nigeria are Wizkid and Patoranking.
