Banks’ Reactions

As a fan of Afrobeats, I've seen the genre go FROM “no one cares”, “it’s too local”, “how do you guys listen to this s***” TO “please play Afrobeats.....”, “No Afrobeats in the party? I'm not coming”, “a whole festival around the genre”. It's a GREAT feeling. Anyway, welcome to my WORLD of commentating on the genre.

Vivz and I sat down with popular Afrostreet artist T.I Blaze to discuss his new 'El Major' album, his performance at Fireboy DML's London concert and his recent successes in the industry.
His laid back and calming energy came through during our sit down. T.I Blaze mentions how he prefers playing fifa over going to club, his favourite food and which football team he supports.
Meeting T.I Blaze was a pleasure to say the least. His talent and hunger at his young age of 22 is inspirational. We discussed his famous collaboration with Olamide on 'Sometimes remix' and how it made him feel - plus many more successful moments he has had during his journey.
I hope you enjoyed the time we spent with T.I and laughed and smiled along with us.
Go stream El Major now!!
