In a recent episode of the Zero Conditions podcast, the sensational singer Sulaimon Shekoni Solomon, popularly known as Khaid, shared a compelling story from his early days as a struggling artist. He revealed how he went to great lengths to get noticed by music executive Don Jazzy, even offering a substantial sum of money to his fellow artist Rema for assistance.
Khaid’s journey to success was marked by determination and an unwavering belief in his talent. During those challenging times, he approached Rema with a heartfelt request. He begged Rema to showcase his freestyle video to the renowned music mogul, Don Jazzy, in the hope of securing a coveted spot at Mavin Records.
Khaid’s desperation to make his dream a reality was evident in his offer to Rema. He was prepared to part with his hard-earned N1 million as a token of appreciation if Rema could help facilitate his entry into Mavin Records. However, despite his earnest attempts to reach out to Rema, his messages seemingly went unnoticed.
Today, Khaid’s story has taken a different turn. He has found a home at Neville Records, an imprint associated with comedian Sydney Talker. Despite the initial setbacks and missed opportunities, Khaid’s persistence and talent have ultimately led him to a place where he can showcase his musical prowess and pursue his dreams in the entertainment industry.
