Finally got to sit and have a lengthy chat with my Idol for the first time in 24 years. My family and I have been his fan since the year 2001. In my old neighbourhood, everyone knew me as an Idibia acolyte, in fact, if there were confusing lines in his songs then, I was the one people consulted to get the lines right. My room was full of magazines and newspapers that had 2face in them. I bought, not only his CDs but that of other artists that featured him. In 2018, I rounded off my Master's degree in English with a thesis on the music of 2face Idibia and I'm happy that at the Afro Halloween Party in Cardiff last night, I was able to share the work with him and also let him know the progress of what I'm doing about it.
Thank you, TuBaba, for the warm reception. Thank you Oga for helping me pull this off.
Cardiff was fun.
