The Mathematics graduate of Delta State University spoke to Lambo Xtra about his journey, his upcoming music projects, and other future projects that fans are anticipating.
Coming from a Mathematical background, I’m a number guy, my brain is always thinking about figures. Hence, when I think of myself and my Chase for X which is the unknown variant in life and the entertainment industry.
I feel 8figures is a comfort figure financially for me… When I get the 1st 8figures, I’ll push to multiple those figures by 2 then by 4 and the numbers continue.
I have always loved music and I find that as much as I shy away from it, I keep finding myself thinking about music a lot.
No, I feel music and cinematography are connected.
I’ll be co-directing all my music videos.
Personally, I feel there are NO LIMITS to our creative. My mind and soul says we can give more creativity to my people so while not.
Just some life lessons good and bad, hoping that my story can inspire others out there to keep pushing and evolving.
Speaking to my team on multi promotional strategies to ensure my single is a success.
Be determined and focus on your passion because there might be little challenges here and there but your ability stay on course regardless of those challenges is KEY.
I wouldn’t say I am changing career, As a cinematographer we use music and beats for our contents so music as always been in my mind. I believe without challenges the essentials of striving and being creative will be defeated.
Personally, I feel challenges are meant to make us go harder so the challenges for me are the same in the music and film industry
I’m working on a full movie titled LOVE, LIFE AND ACCUSATIONS with my beautiful team at Chase X Productions . Hoping to pitch it to Netflix and other film festivals.
