Afrobeat artiste Kingsley King has confirmed that he is focused on getting his EP out rather than seeking collaboration at this stage of his career.
According to the artiste (whose real name is Kingsley Okwudiri Emeghebo): “As far as collaboration goes, I am not currently considering anyone in particular. However, I believe that opportunities for collaboration will arise as long as I continue to put out unique content, remain active, and persist in my pursuit. Moreover, while I admire many musicians. I’m currently striving to discover my own unique sound.”
Kingsley King made the declaration during a live Instagram session with his followers, where he also disclosed that he is working on his EP, which should be ready for release in mid-2023.
The native of Uzii in Ideator North, Imo State, Nigeria, who studied Information Technology at the Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO) and earned a Master’s degree from Phoenix University, Arizona, further confirmed that he is currently juggling many responsibilities as a full-time IT manager and robot programmer.
“While I am extremely passionate about music and view it as a fundamental part of my existence, I also have a lucrative side career that I must maintain. I believe in being practical and not overextending myself in solely pursuing music, as unforeseen circumstances can arise at any moment. However, once I am able to achieve great success and earn a substantial income, I will dedicate myself fully to music. For now, I am extremely grateful for where I am today in my music career,” he said.
