Nigerian Rapper Olamide Adedeji has narrated how his experience growing up in a Lagos slum motivated him to hustle hard.
In a recent interview, the ather of 3 said, “Surviving was hard. Bariga was not far from the other slums you see across the world, from Mumbai to New York and London – life in the ghetto is almost always the same everywhere.”
“There were days when being able to afford three square meals was a big deal for my family. All of that motivated me to hustle hard – I wanted to see the whole world and experience different cultures from what I grew up seeing“, he added.
