Kingsley Ogoro
4 quotes
“I grew up in a family of five children and I’m the fourth child. We live in Lagos. My childhood wasn’t particularly a fairytale one. I was a tomboy and that didn’t sit well with my dad, and my peers in school. I was bullied and made fun of a lot. As a result of that, I had inferiority complex while growing up. But I had the love of my parents and siblings. As a child, I wanted to be a teacher and a housewife because I love children a lot.”

“My uncle, Kingsley Ogoro, happens to be one of the pillars of Nollywood, and I always told him to give me an opportunity. But like they say, a prophet has no honour at home; so, he never took me seriously. But I had a friend who was a sound engineer and he really believed in me. He paid for my first studio session and that’s how my career was born. My first song, No Cry, got me a lot of attention. I was nominated for a lot of awards like the Hip Hop World Awards (now Headies), Nigerian Music Video Awards, among others.I teach outside the box with my music and my songs are not just for entertainment. I believe in a life of purpose and I always want to impact lives.”

“Popular producer, Charles Novia, just called me one day and said since I am able to sing, we should see if I could act as well. He offered me a role in his movie, Alan Poza. After that, I was called by Emem Isong to feature in a movie, Knocking on Heaven’s Door. It was a musical movie and I wrote about 95 per cent of the songs used in it. The movie got a Ghanaian award for Best Original Soundtrack. The roles kept coming in from then. I have also featured in TV series such as MTV Shuga and Tinsel. I produce a lot of soundtracks for movies. I also have plans to produce my own movies and that could be as early as next year.”
