Nigerian music veteran
Wasiu Ayinde
popularly known as K1 De Ultimate has opened up on how his mother affected his music career.
In an interview for his upcoming project, K1 stated that his mother taught him the basics of music.
He explained that although she had a flair and passion for the art. She could not pursue the career because of certain limitations.
“The song ‘Mama’ is to the memory of my mother who also taught me about the rudiments of music and singing. My mother, as a young maiden, was a singer, a princess by birth who was denied the opportunity to display her musical talent because she was the daughter of a reigning king, and also a woman whom they wanted to settle down in marriage,” he explained.
K1 also spoke on how important the track is for him. He stated that the track was in honor of his late mother.
“My mother’s talent was transported onto me by God. She transferred it to me and oftentimes she served as my composer, very many times during her lifetime. She made her own contribution into my musical development. So, I think it’s honorable for me to remember her and have a blessed track for her,” he said.
His mother,
Princess Halima Anifowoshe
, passed on in January 2025.
