The young man, who was born in Nigeria and attended school and university there (he studied biochemistry) said: “Since I was a young boy, I have always enjoyed music.<\/p>\n
“At school I would perform doing Afropop and hip hop and I knew this is what I wanted to be doing as a career.<\/p>
“I came to South Africa to establish myself as a musician, as it is very hard to achieve something like that in Nigeria.”<\/p>\n
The Driehoek resident is set to release his first single, titled Hummer, soon. It features the popular SA artist, AB Crazy.<\/p>\n
Although he is not signed to a record label yet, he hopes the single will kick-start his career.<\/p>\n
“I will be paying for the release myself and have been contacting a number of radio stations to try to organise airplay,” he said.<\/p>\n
The single is due to be released in August and he will release his first album, called Street Hustle, in November.<\/p>\n
The album will feature 11 tracks and he has worked with four different producers on it.<\/p>\n
“Once that’s been released then comes the music video,” Legacy said.<\/p>\n
“I am in talks with a top production company, as I believe you should do things properly and I want a music video that is top quality.”<\/p>\n Legacy is inspired by the likes of 50 Cent and Eminen, and hopes to be as big as they are one day.<\/p>\n His music is versatile and he writes and composes all the tracks himself.<\/p>\n “I would love to collaborate with different South African artists,” he said.<\/p>\n When he is not busy with his musical career, Legacy loves to play football and read.<\/p>\n “I want to represent African hip hop as an average African and take my dream to the next level,” he said.<\/p>\n Legacy will stage a performance at Kalabash, in President Street, on July 26, so if you are into hip hop be sure not to miss this show.<\/p>\n![\"In](\"https:\/\/germistoncitynews.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/31\/2014\/07\/27GCNGENERALANSLMH_552188926.jpg\")
