Speaking about his upbringing in Surulere, Big Wiz said;

There are no amount of words I can put together to make you understand what Lagos is, to explain the hustle, or the political injustice, the strength of the people or the number of amazing creatives.

In the same interview with Vogue UK, Starboy was asked why he felt compelled to speak out during the End Sars protests last year.

He responded:

It was very important for me to be direct and vocal because I’ve always been direct and vocal about political injustice in Nigeria

To see that conversation happen and know that we’re one step forward from where we used to be, that’s amazing to me. And there’s no question I’ll keep speaking out loud.
