Nigerian singer, Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, popularly known as Spyro, has revealed how the late veteran singer Sound Sultan fed, clothed, and supported him before his rise to stardom.
The “Who Is Your Guy?” crooner made this known while paying tribute to the late singer via his Instagram page on Friday.
Expressing his sadness that Sound Sultan was not alive to witness his success, Spyro said he would forever be grateful to the late singer for his mentorship, adding that his success story would not be complete without him.
Sharing a picture of the late singer, he wrote,
“I miss you, mentor… I cannot count my blessings without you. Today, thoughts of how you fed me, clothed me, and accepted me when nobody did, came rushing back.
I remember a night we were to go to an event and as usual, I came so unkempt and fashion-less but while others laughed at me, you went up to your room and brought your cloth down for me to wear.
I wish you were here to see all that is happening. I remember how I would always tell you I would make you proud, and it’s sad you aren’t here now. Thank you for all you taught me and did for me. Till we meet again, rest in power Sound Sultan.”
