EHIDO : My name is Blessed by people calle Ehido Esanboy. I do almost all kind of music, hiphop, afrobeat e.t.c.
We heard music is for broke and lazy guys,what is your thought on this?
EHIDO: Who ever said such a thing know nothing about music, music is not for broke and lazy people. yes no doubt most artist are broke but that does not mean is for broke people. What about Davido we all know he is from a rich home. For the lazy part they are very wrong, an artist who go to the studio morning and come out night you call him or her lazy. Music is an occupation to me.

EHIDO: I did not choose music but music choose me. Music is part of me in everything i do. Is a gift from God
Wow,this is deep,so for how long now have you been doing music?

How has it been,what have been your limiting factors in your musical career so far?
EHIDO: Only money
Money in what sense,To produce your songs or to promote them?
EHIDO: Both. Because any song you record should be promoted
Money has just been my problems and nothing else
Between record label and having money on your own to promote your songs which do you prefer?
EHIDO: Ehnn this is a hard question for someone like me. But I will prefer label because I will need advisers. If I take money I might miss use it.

Lovely,where do you draw your inspirations from?
EHIDO: Actually I love watching artist being interviewed and from the little things they say i will take it as an advise. I motivate myself
If you're in a position to motivate someone ,what will you tell the person?
EHIDO: He should never give up in his dream no matter the struggles he passes through he should always lift his head high. One way close another way open
What else can you take in place of music?
EHIDO: Ehnnn can't say anything for now.
Meaning you can actually swipe something for your musical career?
