@YNaija: @timidakolo Define your brand/style of music

@YNaija: @timidakolo Was a music career something you had always envisioned or did it happen by chance?

@timidakolo: @YNaija it did happen by chance…neva even crossed my mind..i sang for fun.

@YNaija: @timidakolo U chose to tow the path of making music that is somewhat serious as opposed to easy sing along type songs, why?

@timidakolo: @YNaija i knew dat i wanted to do music that would be enjoyed and be relevant when i am gone(dead)

@YNaija: @timidakolo Would you say you make Christian or secular music?
