I am trying to reinvent a direction – Sunny Neji on why he has been off the music scene

In an interview with Punch, Sunny said: “I am trying to reinvent a direction, I am thinking deeper now before I write songs. I am trying to redefine a more inspirational path before I write my songs. If you want to connect with people at that level, it has to do with more thinking.

“Oruka remains relevant, it is just like the Nigerian wedding anthem. Songs that will address societal issues, family issues relationship issues. Some of my greatest songs did not get the kind of reaction I expected. Oruka and Mr Fantastic can be considered to be some of my most successful songs. Some of my deep materials have not received so much accolade; maybe because they didn’t get the kind of promotion the other ones got.”
