Just released photos by Timi Singsong’s management shot by Bree Danielz
The last time we heard from Timi Singsong on the big stage was around 2017 in Lagos Nigeria, he just released the video to his popping single prove holy featuring one of Nigeria’s heavyweight rappers Vector and everything was looking great for him. But, Soon after the release of the video he relocated to the USA to find greener pastures and has since been under the radar.
Timi Singsong surfaced a few weeks ago as the host of Afrique Entertainment Awards in the USA alongside another artist Kambria Moncrief and we got the chance to have an interview with him.
Mazifeanyi: Good morning Timmy how are you doing?
Timmy: I’m doing very well boss, how about yourself?
Doing ok, I would like to know, is it Timmy singsong or TME singsong and how did you come up with that name?
It’s actually T-me singsong but due to some requirements from some music playing platforms, I’ll rather have it as Timi singsong. Some of them give you problems if you have special characters on your brand name. Timi comes from my middle name Timilehin, and singing is what I do, I just used a little from my 250 IQ to come up with the name Timi singsong
Lol, at 250 IQ so you have such a high IQ, Great! Thank you for the clarification, officially it is Timi songsong so that we do not confuse you with someone else.
Yes boss
What took you so long, we saw you in Tsunami and in Prove holy ft Vector and all of a sudden you disappeared from the radar. We were wondering what happened to Timi singsong, can you take us on your musical journey?
So, after the release of prove holy featuring vector tha viper I moved to America to chase my music dream internationally, so I took a 2-year break from the scene to study the environment and the lifestyle before I started doing my thing again.
Are you back to doing music now and what are the plans for your music?
Yes I am. I have an Ep coming out in March 2020, so y’all should look out for that. The title is Take 2
Why Take 2?
Take 2 speaks about my journey through the music industry from Nigeria and my reincarnation back to the music I’ve always loved doing
Do you have any collaborations on the E.P? If yes, who are they, I mean the artists and the producers.
Well, I have Afro rolls, Rilo, Mr duke, vector and juniorboy on it.
Can you speak on Afro-beats in the USA ad compare it to Nigeria and what impact will your project have on USA or Nigeria. Where do you think your E.P will have the most impact?
I think most of my peers would want their music to make an impact in the USA which is also my aim like I said earlier, I moved here to make my music go international.
Finally, tell us where we can find you and your music, especially the ones that have been looking for you all along.
You can follow me on Instagram @therealsingsong and you can add me up on Snap-chat if you want to interact with me personally @t-mesingsong. My new music when it drops will be available exclusively first on your site and later on all streaming platforms. I also do like the fact that you are focused on Afro-beat acts in the diaspora because we do need a channel and a voice. Thank you.
