Soundtech Studio: How do you Handle Mistakes during performance

King Yonder: Love this....I have always believed Music is Art....And there is a believe in the fine arts that mistakes can add beauty if handled well. Rather than fidget or panic, i and my team are spontaneous to play along 'happily' and 'enjoyably' and get the best out of the current situation. But excellence in rehearsals, matter most, pays than using the current situation.

Soundtech Studio: Do you play with any band?

King Yonder: I have a band that works with me

Soundtech Studio: What had being you greatest challenge as a musician and tell us how you overcame?

King Yonder: My greatest challenge as a musician has been comparison and imitation. We all have that subconscious thing that easily wants to be like others, I have many musician friends, with different abilities, strengths and all.

By virtue of 'consistently' appreciating and working on your strengths... You have no time wanting to be like any other.

Note the word, 'consistently'.

Soundtech Studio: There has been the revolving of music over the years, different genre of songs.... The old and new generation vibes mixed together.

You just released a song Owo Re. How will you categorize the song with respect to the revolution of 21 century music?

King Yonder: What I personally have observed, is how music has evolved overtime. Historically, nothing has changed... NO INVENTIONS REALLY, except in the world of music technology, having lots of discoveries recently. We've simply had a blend up of several things 'to taste'. No new chords, nothing new in approach to song writing, composition, nothing new about progressions and all. But the blend up have really generated lots of reactions and responses overtime. Positively and negatively Personally, Its one of my strength as a musician. Most of the time I do 'blend ups; I call it 'GOSPOP', a mixture of American gospel contemporary music, African music and Pop. It has generated emancipation of a single world where the same kind of music reaches everyone. We all kind of listen to the same.

Soundtech Studio: Owo re is the latest song you realized.... Trust me it’s been the talk of the Town. What has been your most inspiring comment on the song?

King Yonder: A fan of mine said 'That song is a sound of heaven to the earth for the now, says it's the provision of heaven to the earth, amidst the tribulations and rancor.

Soundtech Studio: A word for musician.

King Yonder: Yeah, excellence is an unending journey of consistently doing well.

Music deserves it. Even if you are creative, hold on to that quality.

Its breeds hope and optimism to our world at large.

Break your records, appreciate differences, comparison is a form of self-disrespect.

You are the best of You, Be the best at your race and never forget your source.
