Jackydon: (laughs) Don’t mind Slim M. Here’s strictly Music, so no politics. StreetDreamers crew has no leader, besides music leads us everywhere. The three of us carry equal responsibilities.
Who do you guys take to be your best music Group and why?
Jackydon:
Yes these guys, em..em "The New Waves" ( a.k.a Dready Boys) back in the days, early 90s. I
practically grew up with their songs, and it throws back a lot of memories. I
remember vividly back in the days, every young guy in my community had a radio
cassette player. Anybody without one was usually looked at as a real loser.When
you go visit friends, this was the only album you hear. I believe their debut
album was "Yardtick" with hit tracks like: 1.Yard Stick 2.Dready boys
3.Take it easy 4.Still on the move 5.Reggae is the king 6.Pass the nation boys
7.Apartheid world 8.Waiting for the time 9.About yah. Theseguys were extra talented and original.
What don’t you like about the Nigeria music industry?
Jondee: Discrimination and disrespect from so self claimed Big Artists.,, Radio and TV presenters. The DJs are not helping, they charge money to play songs by upcoming artistes.
What is your biggest achievement and best moment in music so far?
Jackydon: People love our Music. Everywhere we go, we get a warm welcome.
The song "Shake somtin" is becoming so popular, what is the secret?
Jackydon: Our Producer Willy Jay (@Nineplus_Record) gave his best while creating the beat, and DonakTV/NancyPromotions made the song more popular with maximum promotion. The song was featured in all their mixed tapes and also played by their professional DJs at shows/events in Port Harcourt. We thank God.
Jondee: its beaming on us the much anticipated turning point in our career and we are grateful to God and everyone involved in making this dreams come true
According to fans outside Nigeria, the song "Against All Odds" is said to be an inspirational song that reverberates in One's heart like sweet melody. What inspired you guys to write the song?
Jackydon: Against all odds is a reality song from our love lives, my girlfriend inspired my lines. (laughs)
And you broke up with her after that, or was it just rumor?
Jackydon: I don’t wanna talk about my love life.
Any words to your fans out there?
Jondee: For the support of our fans, we are always humbled. We promise more music all the time. We shall not disappoint those that have been with us from day one.
Well, thanks so much StreetDreamers for your time. It’s been our pleasure. Do you have anything more you would want someone to know about you?
