I’m not under pressure to surpass Ijoya – Weird MC

Sola Idowu, aka Weird MC, speaks with ’NONYE BEN-NWANKWO about her life and career. The pseudonym Weird MC. I wanted something unique and it worked. The name has never worked against me.

 Why I left England

I am proudly Nigerian. I was born in the United Kingdom and partly raised there. I identify strongly with Nigeria. I’m from Ogun State and a proud Ijebu woman. I fly my Green White Green colours with pride. The decision to come back home was mine and I have no regrets. I’m grateful to God for the level of acceptance I have enjoyed so far and for making me successful. Immense opportunities have come my way and many doors have opened. It can only get better and I’m forging ahead. I’m a very determined woman. At present,  I’m pushing a new artiste and expanding the Weird MC brand.
