While speaking after penning his deal, Abia State born 3ple B who was inspired into doing music by West Life revealed that he greatly admires Chris Brown, Burna Boy, Davido, Olamide and Usher.
He also disclosed when asked to describe the kind of music that he typically creates, that he waxes anything classical and generally acceptable to the listening ear.
‘‘I basically create classical songs and any work that is acceptable to the listening ear. I never really played any musical instrument in school or in church and I’d love to collaborate with Davido
’’What makes me passionate about doing music is the fact that music is life and I hope to achieve a legendary status in my music career in the next 10-years.” 3ple B added.
On his part, Mofizzay who is originally from Enugu State but was born in Nsukka where his parents lived at the time said that he came about his stage name due to his strong and unwavering crush on a female Nigerian musician.
’’How I came about it? [laughs] Well, I umm …It is not an interesting story. I had a strong and unwavering crush on Nigerian musician Mo’çhedda when I was younger. I was so taken with her music and style that I adopted the MO in her name because I liked to imagine myself and her dating.
‘‘The word “Efizzy” was popular at the time, and I liked to imagine myself as a young lad with “efizzy,” so I added it to the “Mo” in my name. It was “mofizzy” at first, but I later decided that “mofizzay” was better, and it has stuck ever since.
The Computer Science graduate of Nnamdi Azikiwe University who had to transfer to high schools several times because his family moved frequently said that his father inspired him into doing music.
’’As much as he would hate to admit it, I think my father (God rest his soul) inspired me to make music. Growing up, I was exposed to a wide range of music, including Michael Jackson, Backstreet Boys, Elvis Presley, Lucky Dube, Brenda Fasse.
‘‘That list goes on and on. And even though it wasn’t what he wanted me to make for a career, unconsciously and unintentionally, he steered me in that direction.
