Joeboy is one artiste that has been overly calm and organized irrespective of his wins or achievement in the music industry, supplying as many hit songs since his debut.
Joeboy came to the limelight after the release of a viral hit single titled ‘Baby’ one of the biggest breakout songs of 2019, becoming the top song across various streaming platforms based on most played.
Five months later he strikes again with a Killertunes-produced track titled ‘Begining’ an obvious hit song that gained massive airplay, a typical back-to-back, cementing his name on the long lists of grounded acts.
