Nigerian Singer and songwriter Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, popularly know as Spyro, has opened up on why he maintains his brand despite facing pressure from his team members.

“Let me educate you briefly about why I am particularly thankful today. I left the label I was signed to in 2019 to start mine. We took bank and personal loans to kick start. And from then till now there has been no form of external financial support from no one. And then I woke up one morning and a few team members came for me asking questions about my JESUS BOY brand. They said ‘you might have to change this brand, we don’t think it’s working for us. I was told to remove the ‘CHRIST AMBASSADOR’ I had written on my profile as at then,” he wrote.

Spyro also stated that people told him that constantly associating his music with Jesus will limit his success.

“It quickly turned into a big fight. I remember saying I will rather DIE than remove Jesus from my profile. Even though I understood where they were coming from. They felt like associating with JESUS limits me and it doesn’t look lucrative and when they saw I wasn’t going to back down. Someone suggested I at least change it to ‘child of God’ which to him is a broader term. I said NO again and told them the JESUS that I proclaim will make a way for me. Recently one of the team mates called and said to me ‘a lot of artistes are suffering now, no deals, no shows but you are in a very good place and I am proud of you’ ah,”he said.

Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, the popular Nigerian singer, who is famously known as Spyro, and known for his hit song “Who Is Your Guy,” has expressed his frustration over unpaid debts owed by some of his colleagues in the entertainment industry.

In his post on social media, Spyro accused the debtors of treating their obligations casually, warning that he would no longer tolerate their refusal to settle their debts.

He said that he had shown significant patience and extended grace but emphasized that his tolerance was nearing its limit. 

The artist issued a stern ultimatum, urging the defaulters to pay up or risk public exposure.

Spyro also addressed misconceptions about his Christian faith, clarifying that his beliefs should not be mistaken for weakness.

“If you know you are OWING me in this industry and I have given you enough grace to deliver but you’ve decided to play smart, this post is a warning as I am about to start calling every single person out publicly… Being a Jesus boy doesn’t make me a fool, read your Bible o, Jesus was really skilled in the art of flogging..Ok.

“John 2:15-17: Jesus put together a whip out of strips of leather and chased them out of the Temple, stampeding the sheep and cattle, upending the tables of the loan sharks, spilling coins left and right. He told the dove merchants, “Get your things out of here!”, he wrote on Instagram.

Nigerian singer/songwriter, Spyro has disclosed that his dad stopped paying his tuition fee because his grades were poor, which affected their relationship.

He explained that his father was a disciplinarian who stopped paying his fees because he was not doing well in school.

The singer disclosed this during an interview with Chude Jideonwo.

Speaking about his relationship with his father who is a pastor, the ‘Only Fine Girl’ hitmaker said his mother took up the responsibility and struggled to see him through school.

The 33-year-old singer said “I felt like my dad hated me,” adding that it affected their relationship.

“When I was younger, I wasn’t doing well in school and my dad pulled back and withdrew from paying my school fees.

“Sometimes I would even ask my mum if she is sure that he is my father. He was just too high-handed. I guess it was because he is a pastor and you know the way pastors are with their kids,” he said.

Popular Nigerian singer, Spyro has spoken up on his childhood experience as the son of a pastor.

In a recent interview on the Just Chude podcast, he shared both the challenges and benefits of his strict religious upbringing.

Spryro described his childhood as difficult, with mandatory church attendance and Bible study sessions, which sometimes felt forced.

He recalled morning devotions being held at inconvenient times, leading to feelings of resentment towards God.

However, upon entering university, Spryro saw it as an opportunity for freedom and escape from his daily routine.

Despite this, he acknowledged the positive impact of his upbringing, crediting his parents’ teachings and fear of God for shaping his values and behavior.

Spryro emphasized that the fear of God has remained in him, influencing his decisions and actions even in his adult life.

He attributes his choices, such as not smoking or drinking, to this fear of God, which he believes has been beneficial to him.

Popular singer, Spyro has revealed that a lady made him dislike Canada.
