Most Nigerian artists don’t understand music -Sifter

Sifter

Sifter is a Nigeria-born America-based music sensation. He left Nigeria for the United States of America to pursue his education but found out that music was his calling. OSEYIZA OOGBODO met him and he said that music is all he thinks of and that his passion for music is why he’s succeeding in it.

Your song, Ololufe, which features 9ice, is already gaining some momentum in Nigeria despite the fact that you are yet to drop it. I learnt you will be dropping the video and the audio same day. Could you tell me what is going on with you and the song?

The song was produced by Smoothkiss, Bugatti Records’ in-house producer. Ololufe is one song that I really like and I’m proud to have featured 9ice on it. The song was composed and written by me. After recording the song, I felt like who could complete the work for me.

And the thought of 9ice came to my mind. I knew some people were saying 9ice had passed his time, but when we got into the studio and I listened to him sing, I changed that mindset. 9ice is a phenomenal musician, no doubt about it.

Why 9ice?

I felt he is the person that will be able to relate the story well, though there are other great artists in Nigeria. But I think 9ice is a legend. He knows his game and has been very consistent.

What was it like in the studio with him?
