Flavour recalled travelling to Lagos to record his first single and collaborating with Nigerian rapper Mr. Raw.
After returning to Enugu, he shared the song with the people around him and received a positive response.
He also disclosed how he went to the car park and freely distributed his CDs to the drivers, giving them a token to encourage them to play his CD. According to him, the majority of them loved it.
