the reason he's never been to Nigeria until now was
because his parents, who are both from Ondo state, were
so poor they couldn't afford a bring him home.
"I grew up poor. We lived in DC, in the projects.
Getting a ticket to Nigeria on $20, 000 income yearly,
to my family that wasn't really... you know...like I
was a 15 year old with a decent job, I'm not going to
save up to go to Nigeria. That wasn't what I was
thinking when I was that age. And then I was in
college and the money tight right then. And then I get
this record deal when I dropped out of school, you're
running around so much you don't even have time to
see your own parents"
