Nigerian singer Ikuforiji Olaitan Abdulrahman, known as Oxlade, said he began singing before he learned to talk.

In a recent episode of the ’90s Babies’ podcast, he shared that his parents told him that.

He mentioned that as a kid, he could sing quicker than he could speak.

“I started singing before I started talking. My parents told me that I started singing before I could even talk,” he explained.

“I sang faster than catching up with talks. That was what my parents told me. I feel like that was where it [my talent] all started from.”
