Indigenous rapper, Wale Turner, recently sat down for an interview, where he talked about his music career.

Speaking with TheCable Lifestyle, the 19-year-old, who recently dropped a video for his viral single, ”˜No`,  shot by Director Q, said:

“From dropping Instagram freestyles to official videos is a very big thing for me. This is what every upcoming artist is always praying for”

“I`ve always dreamt of having my official video shot by one of the biggest directors in the industry. Director Q shot my video. I got used to doing my Instagram freestyles so on the day of my video it felt like I was doing my freestyles.”

 

On his new deal with Royce & Royce Entertainment, Turner spoke glowingly about the label, saying it’s where every upcoming act should want to be.

“My label is a family label. It`s the label every upcoming artist would crave for. Every upcoming artiste should just pray for a helper. If you find your helper trust me you will go a long way.”

“When you pray to God to give you a label everybody will just come ”“ Mavin, YBNL ”“ you will just run back”

“I got offers from all the big labels in Nigeria”

On getting several offers from top labels in the nation, he credited his multilingual ability and versatility as a pace setter.

“What I`m bringing to the table, you guys can`t handle it. I`m the hottest, even God knows”

“From day one I`ve always been rapping with Yoruba, English, and French. The kind of French I bring is like pidgin French so you get to relate to it. My kind of rap is very simple and easy to understand.

“If I come out today and I want to sing RnB, trust me. If I come and want to do Fuji, trust me. Even God knows. God gave me the talent.”

On artistes he would love to work with he mentioned the likes of Wande Coal and Olamide, referring to the latter as his godfather.

 “I want to work with Wande Coal, I`ve always been his fan. Olamide too. Olamide is my godfather.”

On his goals:

“I just want to create something spectacular for my people and I just want my name to be out there. Wale Turner that came all the way from Ketu. ”˜Ketu to the world`.

“I came all the way from Instagram videos on one small phone to official videos. I just want to go international but I want to hit the Nigerian market first.
