Perhaps feeling confident and over buoyed by his back to back victories on the headies award rooster and coming off with a hit as 'Oluwa ni' Reeky Tom Tom went brave with the name for his debut album.
His has been a journey of hard work, fewer luck and much determination. Before his Mavin days we already saw the young man as someone with very much the same skill set as our boy wonder "WIZKID" . He is that good and boy can sing having been instrumental to the success of several Mavin Records’ crew collaborations like the ground-breaking ‘Dorobucci’, ‘Adaobi’ and Looku Looku,’ to name a few.
With 'Chop Am' he caught our imagination but what really blew us off on a personal project of his was 'Katapot' and by the time he gave us Oluwa Ni, he had solidified his status as a member of the certified hit makers we've got. Having sailed away with the Headies next rated award amidst several beefs and various divisive opinions , he was perhaps pressured to release a debut album having seen his counterpart Lil Kesh come out with his own body of work.

He has given us 'SPOTLIGHT' to feed on but has he really hit the spotlights with this debut album? Not yet. Ouwa ni and Hey stranger seem to be the pick of the bunch and even those two seem to not be gaining ground just yet. This is an impressive collection no doubt but he won't be amassing the huge fan base just yet with SPOTLIGHT.
