Even Though My Father Loved Me So Much, He Never Supported Me In Music

Rave of the moment artiste, Oritse Femi has really 'arrived' no wonder he was beaming with smiles on Sunday as D'Banj and Avatar, an entertainment company that recently signed him, gave him a Range Rover Evogue worth about N24m.

In a chat with Saturday Beats, the singer said that his joy was not complete as he would have loved his father to witness his achievement. He lost his father in February this year.

He said that although his father loved him very much, he was not in support of his music career. To dissuade him from singing, his father constantly got him arrested by policemen.

Beaming with smiles as he told Saturday Beats about the show, Geoffrey said, "I felt really good while I was on stage. Oh yes, that was really the first time I would perform for such a crowd. Project Fame was just a competition but this one was meeting the people face to face. This is the real competition. I was just enjoying myself on the stage that night. I just loved the fact that I could sing and people would enjoy. I was so happy with the applause I got and people were excited," he said.
