“Holy Ghost is a new movement, I was going to make the whole album with the new sound, but along the line, I changed my mind, and I decided to. I shared an idea with a certain artist, and the artiste went ahead and put up an album with my idea, and I had to go back and record my album.

I had an idea to do something with sound, and he came to me and asked me and it is an artist that I love. So, I decided to collaborate and show him where I was heading with Afrobeat and five months later, he put up an album with the same sound that I shared with him. So, I had to go back and remake my album, which would be the greatest album of all time probably in history”.
