Everyone has a backstory. Everyone has a driving force that continues to push them past their limits. In this episode of Tea With Tay, Temisan sits down with Abdulrahman Olaitan Ikuforiji aka Oxlade who is inarguably one of the most powerful voices of the new age of Afrobeats for a deep dive into his backstory and his driving force. Oxlade takes us back to the very beginning before his days as a record-breaking hitmaker with "Ku Lo Sa" as he reminisces on his childhood in Mushin when street fights were the order of the day and singing was an escape. He also touches on his uni days with an exposé on factors that led to him being a LASU dropout and eventually finding confidence in his voice and his footing in the music scene. Oxlade also speaks on more recent events in his life, from his sextape scandal to recording what became a smash hit two days after, the aftermath of that song-- "Ku Lo Sa", and his goals and ambition as an Afrobeats star.
