He made this revelation when he appeared on the latest episode of ‘Celebrity Ride With Zionfelix ‘ which shows on Angel TV on Saturdays.
He recounted that, he first met his mentor at the studios of Metro TV on their ‘Morning Ride Show’. This was when he was invited to perform on the show months ago.
According to him, he was reluctant in going to perform when he was first contacted. This, he told Zionfelix, the host was because he was not going to be paid for the performance. But later, he changed his mind since he would as well earn nothing for staying at home.
Meanwhile, whilst on the Morning Ride show performing, Stonebowy was in the makeup room enjoying the scene. The ‘Baafira’ hitmaker, he said, later expressed interest in supporting his brand after his performance. That was the turning point of his life and his addition to the BHIM Nation Family.
