About Me
I'm a young man who believes that every mistake is an oppurtunity to be a better person,an opportunity to become a stronger person.
I just had to be more specific about who Tommy Bee really is.I was born in Jos Pleateu state in Nigeria,I moved to Lagos at the age of 4 and i've been in Lagos ever since.I am the first of 3,all boys.
While growing up,i wanted seriouly to be a rapper,of course i was influenced by the music of Cool G.Rap,Eric B and Rakim,Heavy D and the Boyz,Eazy E and NWA and the different rap groups of the late 80s and early 90s.But on returning to Nigeria in the early 90s I discovered that rap was not particularly a dominant musical genre,so I gave it up ,looking back,i think that was a mistake.
Anyways,today i'm involved in the media,i'd worked with OGBC Abeokuta,as matter of fact,that's where I cut my teeth as a radio DJ.Presently, I work with Nigeria's first and only university radio station,if you are in the Lagos area check it out,Unilag FM 103.1,even the big commercial stations are checking us out.
You can check me out on Monday to Friday from 6pm to 10pm and on sunday from 4pm to 10pm.I've had the opportunity of talking to Minister of Justice,Chief Bayo Ojo, 2shotz,Sunny Neji,Eedris Abdulkareem,Obiwon,Dat Nigga Raw,Freestyle,Mode9,Faze,Morachi,to mention a few on my show.
For me,Nigerian music is a priority,good Nigerian music,i mean.We have to promote our own,that's the only way the industry is truly going to grow.So if you are Nigerian or African in the diaspora or at home and you believe your stuff is good,lets hear it.
