He reflected on his humble beginnings, revealing that his music career started as a choir conductor and drummer in his local church.

This anecdote showcases Flavour’s journey from his modest roots to becoming a celebrated artist in the Nigerian music industry.

In his words:

“I remember one day with P-square, when they just came out with “Temptation.’ They were promoting a show around and the promoters brought them to the spot at City Centre in Enugu.

“With that spot, I already built fans; everybody was there every weekend. No matter what was going on in Enugu, my spot was always packed.

“So the promoters brought Psquare while I was playing, and immediately P-Square came; the manager just said, ‘Hello, off that thing.’

“I switched off, passed the microphone, and went to sit. Then when Paul of P-square picked up the microphone and just said, ‘This na temptation’ everywhere scattered.”
