00:04 What are you expecting? I know you're here for a concert, but you're in the midst of carnival.
00:07 Yeah, a good time, man. Different culture. I grew up with a lot of people from here in the States.
00:14 So I have an understanding of how powerful, how inspirational this is for our people.
00:21 And being Nigerian myself, it's very close to our culture as well. So we're all brothers and sisters.
00:27 There's three things you're going to do before you leave Trinidad. What are they?
00:31 You tell me. What should I do? I'm here. I'm your countryman today. So you tell me what I need to do.
00:37 I'm told that you're going to be playing mass, right?
00:39 Yes, we are.
00:40 You have good food.
00:41 What should I get? What's the number one thing?
00:43 There's roti.
00:44 Yes, I want to get the chicken roti.
00:46 There's bacon chop.
00:47 I want to get that too.
00:48 There's pilau.
00:49 That one as well.
00:50 There's cabbage, chicken and rice, macaroni pie.
00:52 That's about seven things. Okay, that's good.
00:55 What else? I know you came here for the concerts especially. What can people look forward to?
01:02 Just good energy. They'll definitely feel that I'm here.
01:06 For me, we want to make sure that we ingratiate ourselves into the culture.
01:11 Spend these three days, me and my team, punch as well.
01:15 So it's going to be fun, man. And Justin as well. So it's going to be a good time.
01:19 I know tourism in Trinidad is playing a big role in this visit.
01:22 Yes.
01:23 What do you hope to take away from this visit and to go back and tell your friends and family?
01:29 That it's the best Caribbean place I've ever been to.
01:33 The people are beautiful. I want to leave here feeling like I was one of everybody.
01:38 And a good place to just get a nice vacation while I work as well.
01:44 I'm excited. I'm definitely excited.
01:46 Have you spoken to other celebrities who have come to Trinidad before to get a sense of what a carnival is like?
01:52 I had a conversation with Alison Hines. She told me that it's the number one.
01:57 I spoke to Voice as well. He said it's number one.
02:01 I've had my two people tell me that it's fire.
02:05 So you're playing with Yuma this afternoon?
02:08 This afternoon? Maybe. I think so. Maybe. Yes, I think so.
02:13 And of course, I didn't see you walk with your second half. The other half.
02:19 So you came solo. That could be problematic, right?
02:23 No, never a problem, brother. When you have Jesus, there's no problem.
02:28 When you have Jesus.
02:29 Fair enough. One of the other things I must tell you before we conclude this interview is that Trinidad has some of the most beautiful women in the entire world.
02:37 That's why I said what I said.
02:38 And that's why I said what I said. When you have Jesus, none of that matters, my brother.
02:43 I'm happy to be here, though. Genuinely. I think it's going to be an incredible show.
02:47 I just love I just want to see beautiful black people, you know, and that's always a blessing.
02:52 So and shout out to all the women that's coming to the show.
02:55 Shout out to their boyfriends or husbands that's also coming to the show.
02:58 It's going to be an amazing time. One thing you see is a huge melting pot of races here in Trinidad and Tobago.
03:04 Amen. So that's something that's very diverse in the Caribbean.
03:08 Yes. Comparatively to other Caribbean countries. Amazing. Amazing.
03:11 Yes. Let's let's do it, man. We all won.
03:13 You know, we all come from the same place. And and I know that very well, to be true, being that I'm Nigerian.
03:18 So it's all it's all brothers and sisters.
03:21 We wish you the best. You have a great time. Thank you.
