In the final days of his 30s, I spend 2 days with legendary Nigerian superstar, Dapo Oyebanjo. In the first part of this special interview, we return to the beginning of Africa's greatest entertainer.
I love this interview soooo much. Its relatable, like I can read it in his voice. Thank you for doing this, Joey. And to the koko master for sharing his life and truth with us. Started listening to D'banj when I was thirteen. I'm in my late twenties and the love is unreal. Used my money as a JSS student to buy his record 😂😂😂. Love forever 😊❤️
Thank you for this, I have spent the last hour reading this and it just felt like I was seeing a movie at the Cinema. I am grateful for this insightful interview.
The best interview ever..my brother dbanj broke everything down. I have a connection with dbanj probably cos we are the same month..I so much love him...
It's great to c journalism about Nigerian creatives. For such a long time it's been a bane of our entertainment industry: zero to paltry record of the journeys of our artistes.This you r doing is crucial Joey.Well done!

DBanj remains my best....the best ...the Legend in whole of Africa and Worldwide...God bless You Dapo..happy 40th birthday Eja Nla...the White Lion...
....cultivating isn't easy, likewise making a name without having enemies isn't realistic . D'banj is spectacular.
Very good
