Tipsy: Well tipsy tipsy tipsy, I am a she(obviously),born and bread in Nigeria, moved down here few years ago. And here I am a dancer, singer and student
Afrik: According to our records, you started as a professional dancer, tell us more about that aspect
Tipsy:Well yes, I have always been a dancer, juz sumting I have a real passion for. I took a step forward with the dancing when I got to UK when I started making home videos on youtube, got discovered by certain people and that was where it all began
Afrik: Now, we got a post you are now fully into musik, could you tell us why the switch
Tipsy: I wouldn't call it a switch. I luv dancing as much as I luv testing the microphone. So I juz thought a combination of both would work. Dancing alone for me is amazing but to some people its boring that's why I decided to add something a lil more definable. So its juz like adding curry to fried rice.
Afrik: Lol, someone is trying to tell me she is a good cook. So tell us, has the curry mixed with fried rice been favoring you (musik aspect), and are you currently signed to any management or label
Tipsy: Lol. I can cook o don't test me. Juz that u mite go to the toilet a couple of times after. So far its been favouring me, both the critical side n good side all has been helping me so far. And yes I am signed to bigboyz entertainment. Jjc awoo is d boss
Afrik: Bigboz Ent. Hmmm, that's a big one. So tell us, how do you tend to penetrate into the music world in 9ja while based in the UK
Tipsy: Based in UK. Well to do dat, I have to learn from the ones who have successfully done it. E.g dbanj, jjc. I mean constantly come out with songs that make sense and Nigeria can relate with.
