Basketmouth also seems to have been pursuing his interest in music with the recent release of a single titled Trouble featuring 2baba and Blaqbonez.

While sharing pictures of himself and Ductorsett, the budding Nigerian producer, Basketmouth revealed why he didn’t venture into music despite it being his passion.

“Most people do not know this but music was my first love, then TV before comedy,” he wrote.

“I had to do it backwards as the timing wasn’t right & I hadn’t met a producer that can see music the way I see it……in its true form & color. God bless the day I met you.”

In November 2020, the ace stand-up comedian also came through with ‘Yabasi’, a soundtrack album for ‘Papa Benji’, his comedy series.

The album featured artists like Ladipoe, BOJ, The Cavemen, Bez, Waje, Duncan Mighty, Flavour, and Phyno.
