*     Can we meet you?

My name is John David, stage name Zealot, born in Oyo State, Ibadan. I studied computer Science at Osun State College of Technology.

*     For you, is Music inbuilt or something you developed?

Music is inbuilt for me.

*     How and When did you start as a Music Artiste?

I started music in church as a chorister and later graduated into composing and writing songs myself which I started in the year 2013.

*     Are you a full-time Musician?

I'm a full time musician.

*     What else do you do apart from Music?

I'm a computer scientist but lately music has stolen all the computer time so it's squarely music.

*     What perception about music generally do you want to change in this modern day society that we live in? And what innovations are you planning to bring into the Music industry?

We presently have few artistes that are willing to pass meaningful messages with their songs so i want to make inspirational songs with meaningful lyrical contents and when the time comes to give groovy jams, we drop it.

*     What are the challenges you face as a Music Artiste that you think other artistes might also be facing? And what is your advice for fellow Music Artistes?

I believe only upcoming artistes face problems and it always has to do with how to make yourself known to the world . Upcoming Artistes have nice songs but promoting it is a problem. My advice for every upcoming artiste is never to stop believing in yourself and perseverance is another key to making it, don't stop!!

*     What Genre of Music do you sing? And how many singles and collaborations have you been able to pull through so far,that is, recorded,produced,promoted...

I sing Afrobeat and Afropop. I have about 6 singles. Close to 6 collaborations including Underrate ft Oritsefemi.

*     Where do you see yourself in the next five to ten years?

I really can't tell but u believe I will be blessed beyond my imaginations.

*     How does anyone who would like to listen to your songs download them (Although the download links for your song is available for download on this interview page); Then how would someone who wants to invite you for a show contact you? What are your Social Media handles like your Facebook page and Instagram ID, Twitter Handle?

It's on Itunes, Spotify etc and you can always download from any site
