The rapper further shared that when he met Don Jazzy to get him to add his vocals to the song, the legendary producer gave him $10,000 cash while also refusing to take any royalties for his contribution.

“When I went to his house to get his vocals, he gave me $10,000 and even my friend was asking me why he gave me such a huge amount of money,” he narrated in the interview.

OdumoduBlvck further praised Don Jazzy who he described as a real don for being the most original personality in the Nigerian music industry.
