Nigerian sensational act, Jahfizz has paid a
big price for being such a handsome guy. Recently there was an
allegation that his recent trip to the US was to satisfy the sexual urge
of his female customers as a gigolo and homosexual.
Seven years
ago, he was a nobody, he moved to Lagos alone and had a very rough time.
Sometimes he slept on the street, for like three years or so, he slept
in cars and today, he is hot and famous. Jahfizz's fashion
weakness is the fact that he could be regarded as metrosexual in looks
especially because he is not confident in wearing clothes that’s not
fitted. He feels lost in clothes that are not cut to fit his body.
Apart
from that he doesn’t think he has any weakness. He revealed that he has
a crush on Martha Ankomah, whenever she’s around he loses his guards… He loves art and loves his tattoos, every tattoo on his body is related to the Bible verses he loves and that guides him.
"Sorry
to all those who doesn’t like it, tattoos don’t define who you are
like; they say read a book and know its content. Know the person, not
the tattoos," he said.
For the ladies, he loves everyone of you
and he wishes he could marry all of you but since he can’t, he can only
love and appreciate you, ladies.
E! 365 Exclusive Interview with Opeyemi Olaleye, know as
Jahfizz – an up-and-coming at his residence today, enjoy and share your comments.
Who are you and where
are you based?
I am Opeyemi Olaleye but fondly referred to as @Jahfizz,
I am a singer – an Afro Pop artiste and a student – Computer Science, Lagos
State University and I am based in Lagos State, Nigeria.
What do you do,
how would you describe your presence in the industry and what is your mission?
As mentioned earlier, I am a singer and a student. I am
also a Publicist, PR and Blogger. Presence, just like every other up-and-coming
acts, I am still pushing on hard to be recognized. And, mission? **smiles** As
e dey go nooow, I am on a mission to impact lives, positively with music –
which is what I know how to do best.
How long have you
been doing this?
Will not say since when I have been in the womb like
majority out there does says **smiles** but it has been a very long time. Yea,
it all started back in my elementary school days and I added the touch of
professionalism in 2005 when I recorded See Di Girl (Prod. by O.n.O) – my first
single, it has a video that is everywhere.
Notable moments in
your career?
Wao!! It was when ”Maa Lo Le (Prod. by T-izze)” emerged
as Best Afro Pop of the year, Hype Award 2013 adding credits to my Curriculum
Vitae, it was a wonderful experience to be honoured with such as an up-and-coming
artiste **smiles**
What is the best
and worst part of what you do?
Ummm, there best should be when act of being recognised,
for instance, to friends and family being proud of you in such a way to beat
their chest on your behalf, saying… “@Jahfizz is our son, @Jahfizz is my bosom
friend, @Jahfizz is or used to be my date among others” and the worst was
realizing late that music business, rather entertainment as a whole requires
much more capital to gain that stand because e no at all easy to do promotions
**laughter**
[cuts in]
A little about
you…
To tell about myself,
I would begin with saying that I am the last child of the family of
7-grown adults, including myself. I live for music alone, none other thing
apart from music can make my spirit soar. Ummm, what more can tell you? Oookay,
I am down to earth – not short oo, religious, humble but stubborn and I am the
amicable type, fun to be with.
Where do you see
yourself in 10 years
I hope and pray to be one of world’s rated singer and
entrepreneur representing for Nigeria before then, you know say life sweet
**laughter**
What do you do for
relaxing/fun/chilling out?
Being around friends and listening to good music
What advice do you
have for others inspired by you?
With God, all things are possible… Make una all remain
focus, determined and never let anyone convince or stops you from what you know
how to do best, not the likes of robbery – no quote me wrong oo **laughter**
Message for your
fans, haters, critics…
To my great fans, I love you all and to them haters, e no
matter the level or how desperate the critics might be, I believe it is part of
the life we are all living as it is an obvious issue, not everyone like you and
vice versa but like M.I., The Mister Incredible had said, “if nobody talks
about… Wether na true abi na lie, then you are nobody”, I love you guys because
I hate no one.
