“I rap about what I see around me. My style of music is more of fusion,” Juggernaut says describing his style of music. “There is a bit of everything in my style of music. Obirin Asiko is a hip hop song. The lyrics are deep; it is about where I am coming from. I was prepped at Kalakuta Records until they felt I could stand on my own before I was given the flag and moved to Black­house Music,” Juggernaut adds

According to Juggernaut, he has already recorded three albums and describes his label boss, Seun Kuti as one looking out for raw talent: “He is enlightened and does not restrict himself. He likes what I do. Blackhouse is all about putting out there meaningful music. I have come to raise the bar in Nigerian music.”

Juggernaut, who describes himself as a musical colossus says he started out as a dancer before he started writing his own stuff, adding that the title of his yet-to-be released debut album is Juggernaut the Amazing.
