He is the next big thing in the music industry in Nigeria. If I were to describe him in one word, I would call him “amazing”. He is in a league and class of his own. He knows the art and act of music. His voice is enchanting, welcoming like fragrance from an open door. A master of the guitar; a major in Soul Music fused with Pop, Hip Hop, Afro Pop and Reggae. Poetic by nature, a story teller via music, his kind of music is etched on his lifestyle. Simply-Rich is a definition of music.

placeⅾ the shell to her eаr and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants tߋ go back! LoL I know this is entirely off tߋpic but I had
to tell someone!
