Sensational Nigerian musician John Ighodaro, popularly known as Johnny Drille, has spoken out about feeling like a “loser” after failing to enter the top 10 of MTN Project Fame.
In 2013, the newlywed singer appeared on the talent show.
He revealed this in a recent interview with reality personality KimOprah on Hip TV’s Trending show.
He said: “A lot of people don’t know but I was on Project Fame in 2013. I did not make top 10 not to talk of winning. But for me, it was like the beginning of everything for all these.
“I know when I was evicted that night, something was born in me. For the first time in my life, I feel like a loser. I feel like I wasn’t worth anything. That night, I made a decision that I’m going to become a great person, a great musician, a great artiste. So, it was from then that I started doing music professionally.”
Johnny Drille rose to prominence in 2015 after releasing his smash single ‘Wait For Me’ on Don Jazzy’s Mavin Records.
