SPOTLITE: ONE ON ONE WITH CROC-CITY REPRESENTA! AT a.k.a AYUBA TETE

DOWNLOAD LISTEN UP- AT

Bio
ANS: My full name is Ayuba Tete,from Kaduna State,I'm a singer,songwriter,producer,painter,graphic,artist,and i work as a producer for a TV station...

When did you start making music, and for how long now?
ANS: I'll say i started officially with the release of my single,"which one we dey" in 2004,but I've been performing onstage,writing songs and singing back up as far back as 1995,and I've been called "AT" since i was in ss1

Tell us the inspiration behind what you do.
ANS: i sing and write as i feel,if i'm angry,i write an "angry song",if i'm happy,i write a happy song...also from peoples experiences that i can easily relate to.So my themes cut across; from inspirational,to social commentary,to love,and everything in between that an average young guy or girl goes through.

Tell us about the struggles/hustles regular youngsters in naija go through just to be heard.
ANS: its hard,and its getting even harder because its seems to be all about the image these days instead of the skill or talent.and to have a concrete image,you need money and coming from my conservative background,its tough,but not impossible...consistency is key.Another thing is the "bottle-necked vision" to success.for instance a young hopeful sees a tuface and instead of looking at tuface's background,and being inspired by his earlier experiences (i.e,back in the days before music became "cool") ,the youngster is driven by the glamour and glitz of it all.I call today's music "microwave music"...no offense to those doing it from the heart.

World Domination is about defining your own life, your own path and your own destiny. It's about #BANS. It's about World Domination. 

World Domination features a collection of established acts (Mode 9, Pherowshuz) and upcoming acts like Blaq Bonez, Boogey and others.It is Terry's way of respecting the past and acknowledging the future.
