According to him, the lockdown period provided some opportunities in the face of the pandemic. As it allowed many musicians to dive deeper into their creativity.
“I discovered more depth. Introspection is the key to uncovering new layers to one’s humanity. Quality time with family was also an added bonus of this pandemic period. In all, I’ve recorded some of my best music to date and can’t wait to share them with the world!” He said.
