“Who am I?”… It’s an easy enough question, and yet incredibly difficult to truly answer. See there’s a world of difference between who you are right now, and who you were mere moments ago, let alone who you are yet to become. But I think, underneath all of those changes, is our core, our absolute truth that we keep building on. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels #deepthoughts #canadianartist #nigerianartist #creativephotography
Who you surround yourself with, that makes all the difference. I know what it’s like to be made to feel like you’re too much, or not enough, to be told to reel in your own dreams, to be made to doubt yourself. And so for the longest time I refused to let anyone else into my circle, lest it be poisoned again. But at the beginning of 2023 I realized that I needed help with my publicity, I couldn’t do it on my own anymore; I needed someone to help me open the doors that still remained closed to me. @kalikahastings and I had toyed previously with the idea of working together, and so we finally set off on that journey. And throughout the year she’s proven to me time and time again that my circle is better with her in it, that she is deserving of my utmost trust and respect. And so, as we move into 2024, I want to take a moment to express gratitude to a wonderful being that continues believes in me, that doesn’t see me as too much, or not enough, that urges me to continue to dream my biggest dreams. Thank you Kalika for being my Publicist EXTRAORDINAIRE! 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels. 🏢 @collective.studios.montreal #gratitude #teamgoals #publicist #newyear2024
Why are they so happy to see those who dared to climb suddenly lose their footing, to see those who paved the way now lost in those tracks? Why are they more eager to criticize your fall than celebrate your rise? 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels #introspection
I’m grateful for my failures, because I’ve learned from them, because they gave me cause to rethink my steps, because now I know what I may have not known to know, because now I see hope even at the end of the road. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels. 👕 @kuwallatee #motivation #wordsofencouragement
Eventually you’ll stop looking for reasons to be happy; the reasons will find you, because you’ll allow yourself to be receptive to it, because you’ll accept that you deserve it. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels Be sure to check out ‘Clash of Gaia’, the two-track EP by my BFF @jess.abran and me, available across digital stores and platforms (link in bio). #bffgoals
On December 1st, I’ll be putting on my final show of the year. I was invited by @afroqueb to headline at their ‘Music & Discovery’ showcase.

You won’t always make the right choices, or follow the right paths; but sometimes you need to stumble around in the dark, so you can truly appreciate the light, when you finally find it. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽 ‘Clash of Gaia’, the moody 2-track EP by @jess.abran & me, is now available across digital stores and platforms (link in bio). 📷 @adhdtravels #music #mindset #photography #artist
Sometimes you get the right answer only after you’ve chosen all the wrong ones. And sure you may tumble right back down to where you began, but those missteps, they are rich with wisdom. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @terrie.reyes #wordsofwisdom #mindfulness

Thank you @notablelife for this prestigious honor 🙏. And thank you everyone who voted for me and made this possible.

I am definitely feeling blessed right now! 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪😊. 📷 @adhdtravels #music #notableawards2023
It’s easier to stay the same, to leave things as they are, because change is scary; there’s something frightening about the unknown, that’s for sure. But change moves our stories onward, it gives us something to look forward to… something to look back on. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels #wordsofwisdom
In case you missed it, my last single of 2023, ‘Where Do the Good Times Go’, featuring @elishagreymusic, is available across digital stores and platforms. (Link in Bio). 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @strictly_street_shots. 🏢 @afroqueb
Sometimes I feel stifled; I feel the weight of people’s perceptions, their ideals, their wants and needs, as though I’m giving away my sense of individuality to appease their sense of belonging. I wrestle with that; I can never tell if I’m giving away too much or holding on too tightly. I guess that’s part of the journey of life, looking for that balance. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels 🎵’Where Do the Good Times Go’ – Stephen Voyce feat. @elishagreymusic #canadianartist #nigerianartist
We run away from the things that bring us peace, we find reasons to pull away, instead we run towards chaos. And it’s because deep down we believe that we don’t deserve that happiness. I know this, I’ve been that person, but not anymore. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @terrie.reyes #mindfulness #growthmindset
Everyone’s putting on a show; at least that’s what it looks like to me. We’ve become illusionists. With our sleights of hand, smoke and mirrors, and well-timed misdirections, we create these idealized lives and watch as onlookers turn to us in awe and wonder. And so we rest our egos on a bed of lies, only to wake up to a truth we will once again deny. I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of seeing the world through a mask. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels
While this time of year is meant to be filled with love and laughter, for many it is a reminder of loss, a reminder of the hardships they face. And I know we can all use this moment to serve as a time of levity, but let’s never turn our hearts away from the world outside of our own. And so to anyone that needs to hear this, you are loved, you are deserving of love, you are not alone. 📷 @shotbygl514
This year has truly been a blessing for my music; I’ve released songs that I’m truly proud of, produced tracks for some truly talented artists, and have had the honour of being guest featured on some dope tunes, tunes like ‘Link Up’ by @jjblaq. ‘Link Up’ by @jjblaq, featuring @kckings__, @spacely1z and myself, is available across digital stores and platforms.

You may be turning a new page in your life’s journey, or beginning a whole new chapter, or starting a brand new story altogether, or revisiting an old one. Wherever you find yourself, just remember that your story doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels. 🏢 @collective.studios.montreal #happynewyear #newyear2024
Been a while since I did one of these but Loki is hands down my favorite MCU series, and after that epic season 2 finale, I had to remix this theme song. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽 #remix #loki #lokiseason #geek #mcu #geeklife #lokiedit
To me, calling the fruit of our boundless creativity “content” is akin to calling a meticulously crafted chorus “a hook”. And yet we do, and we accept it, without question, subconsciously programming ourselves to devalue our art, our merits, all the while relinquishing our power to those that monetize our blood, sweat and tears. That magical photograph you captured, it is not content, it is art. That beautiful song you wrote, it is not content, it is art. That profound movie you filmed, it is not content, it is art. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽. 📷 @adhdtravels #art

How can you truly know where you’re going if can’t accept where you’ve been? It’s time I bridged the gap in my creative journey. You can now discover my entire music catalog on Spotify, Apple Music and other digital stores and platforms (Link in bio). 🇨🇦🇩🇪🇳🇬👽 And a massive shoutout to @tunecore who worked patiently with me to make this consolidation possible. #music #spotify #applemusic #spotifywrapped #spotifywrapped2023
4 years ago today, the universe put us in each other’s paths, and every day since has been the greatest adventure of my life. Where once I allowed darkness to wholly consume me, you find a way to let the light shine in; you taught me to exist in the balance of things. That is the magic that you are, the magic that’s enchanted my heart. Happy Anniversary ma reine. 📷 @calasmico.eth
I’m officially addicted to Baldur’s Gate 3. I’ve been wanting to remix the theme song, ‘Down by The River’ by Borislav Slavov, and so I did 😊. @larianstudios you created a masterpiece of a game 🙏. 🇨🇦🇳🇬🇩🇪👽 #baldursgate3 #ps5 #baldursgate3edit
