Ghetto music's development was not entirely his own, as it was also influenced by the work of Daddy Showkey and Baba Fryo. His songs "Elerugbe erue", "Faka Fiki faka" and "Fiji fa" sold over 300 thousand units in Lagos state. Later, over 1 million of his songs were sold illegally by pirates at Alaba International Market. In 2017, he once advised the new generation artiste that their songs should not always be about "whine your waist" and they should also avoid repetition of words and try to sing songs that would impact positively on the nation's economy.
