A Nigerian comedian and singer, Lawal Michael Nasiru Bolaji, also known as Nasboi has revealed that he mimicked David Adeleke, better known as Davido to gain his attention.
The skit maker recently launched into the entertainment scene with his “Low Budget OBO”.
He made the revelation while being recently featured on the interview segment of MTV Base Naija Top 10.
The entertainer said he followed Davido’s steps to draw the afrobeat star’s attention and showcase his talent.
He explained that he had disturbed the singer till he invited him and he began to play his music.
In his words, “I started off mimicking Davido. So, the plan was to get David’s attention for my music. I disturbed this guy till he invited me one day and I started playing my music.”
He added that the reason he dived into skit-making was that his mimicking of the music legend was gradually attracting people’s attention.
“It [my mimics of Davido] started looking like a cruise to everybody. So, I said, okay, let’s jump on it. That’s how I jumped on it and it started looking like it demanded for me to start making skits. So, I had no option than to make skits,” he explained.
