Q: CAN WE MEET YOU?
A: My name is Awopeju Olaniyi Phillips the already famous herbalist musician on project fame @KingPhillipiano.
Q: WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU ARE FAMOUS ALREADY?
A: You can easily see the visibility of my brand whenever I sing or even walking on the street people wants to know who I am, and if you check every web on social media now #HERBALISTBATTLEFORFAME is really trending so it’s a success already and even, the battle for fame has been won.
Q: WE SAW THE AUDITION BUT WHY DID THE JUDGES DECIDED NOT TO SAY YES OR NO?
A: It is so unfortunate, and my fans were so disappointed because I have a big brand to project MTN, but the project fame judges, judged out of fear which makes them gave me an inconclusive judgment by not specifying Yes or No on my own audition. But am still expectant in receiving a call back from them, it could be for other advertising project because the top 24 contestant has already been chosen. I want to assure all my fans that they will surely get the best from me when it comes to meaningful music that will impact lives positively, It is not a new thing to me because people like to discriminate against traditionalist while we forgot our root as an African, for example how will you expect a gospel singer like shola Allison to shortlist a traditionalist and a self-proclaim herbalist? She will find one way or the other to protect her name, of which I am the greatest brand in this PROJECT FAME SEASON 9 if you watch that audition you will see the visibility of my Afrocentric hip-hop Fuji brand which is highly motivational and also represent the diversity of the unity in African music. The connection of the message in my music with the judges is so strong so I don’t deserve to be cheated or robbed like that because of my religion.
Q: IF YOU WERE IN THE ACADEMY WHAT WILL BE YOUR LOGIC TO EXCEL AMONG THOSE POWERFUL SINGERS?
A: I am a diversified artiste you can’t really predict what I can do, If I were in that academy, PROJECT FAME 9 would have gone viral internationally because of my brand. People love to watch controversial contents and want to see how the proclaimed herbalist wants to meet up at the academy but it’s all good I still get the fame because its project fame. Thumbs up to MTN, ULTIMA STUDIO, LINDA IKEJI, SSMG PROMOTIONS AND OTHER BLOGGERS for the publicity am a star already, the fame I was battling for has come.
Q: ARE YOU TRULY AN HERBALIST OR A MUSICIAN OR IS IT THE TWO YOU DO TOGETHER? OR IS IT THE PROJECT FAME THAT LABELS YOU AS AN HERBALIST?
A: Whatever you see me doing either in my video or live is real, I am a herbal doctor and spiritualist and no matter how many power i have in spite of herbalism and Spirituality i can’t live without my music, my music and me always. Also i want you guys to watch out for my music you can also Google my songs online. I am KING PHILLIPIANO OLOBAMETA A.K.A THE (ORACLE ) The already famous herbalist on PROJECT FAME am famous already.
Q: WE NOW UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE GOOD IN BOTH HERBAL RESEARCH AND MUSIC, BUT HOW WILL YOU MANAGE THE TWO TOGETHER IF ANY RECORD LABEL OR ORGANIZATION WANTS TO GIVE YOU A DEAL BECAUSE OF THIS YOUR PECULIAR AND INCOMPARABLE BRAND?
A: Everything is all about leveraging I have people running my herbal company as the C.E.O you can’t be everywhere like MTN both are going together smoothly even the music is projecting my herbal business, it helps a lot in my marketing strategy. I use my music to market my product and also to project my brand to the world.
Q: CAN WE KNOW ABOUT YOUR PRODUCTS AND THEIR EFFICACY?
A: Thank you very much for your question, I have a product line called GBOLA HERBAL DRINK which works for pile and sexually transmitted infections, In fact it’s a NATIVE ANTIBIOTIC,I also have BLACK RUDI which is a non-alcoholic herbal drink for pile and blood purification. I also treat diabetics, strokes, staphylococcus, spiritual attack etc. My fibroid therapy is 12 days with no SIDE EFFECT AND NO REGROW I have a vast experience in herbalism.
Q: FOR EXAMPLE IF MTN WANT TO BREAK THE RECORD OF BEEN THE FIRST ORGANIZATION TO SIGN A FAMOUS HERBALIST AND MUSICIAN LIKE YOU AS A BRAND AMBASSADOR ARE YOU WILLING TO DROP MUSIC FOR HERBAL RESEARCH OR DROP HERBAL RESEARCH FOR MUSIC?
A: Like I told you earlier both complement each other My herbal business does not disturb my entertaining activities, they complement each other, I will even urge co-operate organizations to come and bring the best out of this brand because it’s a big brand that calls attention everywhere he goes either on the street and social media people wants to know who I am.
Q: SINCE YOU HAVE BEEN PROJECTING YOUR SELF WITH THIS BRAND, WHAT BENEFITS HAS THE BRAND BROUGHT TO YOU AND WHAT ARE THE THINGS YOU HAVE ACHIEVED SO FAR?
A: A lot , a lot, I can’t even remember all, because if I say I remember all its like underrating what God has done in my life. During the time of HER EXCELLENCY CHIEF MRS OLUFUNKE AGAGU, the wife of the former governor of ondo state (GOVERNOR OLUSEGUN AGAGU) I was able to initiate a project call ABILITY RIGHT which I used to motivate, encourage and inform person with disabilities not to become a liability to the community and it was a success which the governor’s wife sponsor the whole project.
Also I was part of the people that God used to secure the second term of HIS EXCELLENCY GOVERNOR OLUSEGUN MIMIKO, because I founded a platform called ARTIST FOR IROKO to mobilize for his election ,I have also done lots if jingles and campaign albums for politicians like Omisore, Hon segun oshinkolu the Olu Omo Of Ekiti North, Hon Olusegun Fanibe, Former Governor Segun Oni Of Ekiti State, Governor Ayo Fayose Of Ekiti States etc. The list of the benefit are endless, also I was part of the people that initiated (ASCEND) association for comprehensive empowerment of Nigerians with disabilities head by MR COSMOS OKOLI of M.A.R.R.D.E.C MOBILITY AID CENTER. right now am the c.e.o of STAR-GATE HERBAL CENTER , LYRICAL HIERARCHY MUSIC EMPIRE AND HIT-CITY MUSIC which I groom upcoming artistes and record most of them for free if I know you have a potential of becoming a star, any record label looking for great music producers and commercial artists can easily sought from us, there are rooms for partnership or outright signing on of any of our artistes or brand, the names of these our artistes are BIG DIDDO ,WAXY COOL,WALOMA,ILEKE PUMPING,LOCO, J BLOW,LORD PHYDO,SPIRIT FINGER ,VIP 72 AND DOCTOR FAME, we organize a mix tape album launch last year November 2015 so that record labels can notice them for pick up.
Q: WHAT ADVICE OR WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENTS DID YOU HAVE FOR OTHER UPCOMING ARTISTE LOOKING UP TO YOU?
A: I will advise every artist to stand out and do common things in an uncommon ways, also set up a positive vision for yourself because it’s the foresight base on the insight for the benefit of mankind, life without vision leads to frustration and regret, for you to live a meaningful life you must have a vision, hold on to your vision if you don’t have one get one, set up your vision to accomplish your mission, it’s a conceptive idea that exist in the realm of imagination.
