Mayorkun talks on his mother's influence on his music career

In case you don't know, Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, popularly known as Mayorkun, is the son of veteran Nollywood actress, Toyin Adewale.


This is the reason why the "Mama" crooner  has tried to create a unique identity of his own, devoid of his mom’s influence.


In an exclusive chat with Showtime, he explained that contrary to what the public thinks, his mom hardly knows any hip-hop artiste. He boasted that she rides on the wings of his success in the music industry and not the other way round.

“First, no disrespect, but my mom has no impact on my entertainment influence. My mom is in fact the person who wants me to go into banking other than music so she never spoke to anybody, she never had any influence. By the way, my mom is not even in Nigeria, so I do my things myself.”
