He had a recent interview with Tribune Newspaper where he talked about how far he has come.
Read on:
Let me take you back to the days you were not the popular Sean Tizzle. What were the broke days like?
Those days were very rough, but we thank God that we have been able to sail through. I used to sleep outside, hustle and fall asleep in buses. I also used to go to owanbe parties not to dance, because I didn’t have party clothes to wear, but I used to go because they had food. So at least at the end of the party, I could help out, get a little change, then go find shelter somewhere and continue my hustle the next day.
Whatever change I had, I would take to the studio and use to do my sessions, get a little recording done and transport myself around.
There is this story that most people don’t really know about you. Some years back, you came to perform at an event on a bike and could not pay the bike man, who in turn made a scene. What really happened that day?
Yes, it actually happened. Not everybody was born with the proverbial silver spoon in their mouths. It’s clear, all those things happened for a reason. I got to the venue of the event on the bike, checked my pocket and there was no money in it, but I had money in it before leaving the house.
So, how did you resolve the situation?
Someone who happened to know me came out and asked what was going on. I explained what happened to him and he told me not to worry. He paid the bike man and even gave me extra, so I could go through my event and go back.
But so far, I haven’t heard that you are from a wretched family, how come you had to go through all these while growing up?
I wouldn’t say my family was so poor, but we weren’t so rich that I could ask my parents for all I really wanted. When I first started, my parents were not in support of my music, and as an entertainer, one had to go places, change clothes, and my parents had other children to take care of, so I had to go out and get things done for myself in order to finance my project.
