The ‘Finesse’ artist explained that his decision to fully pursue singing came after battling COVID-19, as he felt compelled to make the most of his talents and not leave anything unexpressed.
In a recent interview with The Beat 99.9 FM in Lagos, Pheelz elaborated on his journey and motivations.
“Some of the artistes I produced for, released music I wrote for myself.
“COVID-19 happened and I had to really think about my life because I caught the virus and almost died.
“I was like, ‘I have to die empty if at all. You can’t have all these awesome stuff [talents] inside you and you’re afraid. Don’t care, just die empty’.”
