I haven’t gone to church since I met Davido but i believe in God — Peruzzi

Popular singer, Tobechukwu Victor Okoh, popularly known as Peruzzi, has revealed that he has not gone to church since he met Davido even though he believes in God.

He said this when he featured on Joey Akan’s Afrobeats Intelligence’ where he also spoke about his days as a keyboardist and chorister.

“I haven’t gone to church since I met David. I haven’t been to church in like four years. But yeah, I believe in God,” he said.

“I’ve always seen myself as a star before I met anybody in this industry, I used to act like ‘people are watching me.’ I didn’t have any drip, but I’d make sure that I’m not wearing any fake Gucci, I’m not wearing any fake Versace.

“I’m wearing a plain white shirt. I had my way that I’m going to be something. I didn’t know how, but I knew, ‘guy, I’m going to be

something.’ I was already acting like I was.

When David met me, I was branding myself already. “He knew there was a wave. It’s been like that because I always felt like if you know you want

to get somewhere, just start preparing yourself

for it. [It] wasn’t really fake-fake, ’cause I didn’t rock no fake sh*t. But I faked being a star.” The singer who said he doesn’t plan to remain

a singer forever revealed that he sees himself settling down with his family in California in the next six years.

He said, “Like my mum used to say: ‘Even if you no know where you dey come from, no forget where you dey go. I feel like you can’t just be

existing. 

You have to be living. In the sense that, you have to be about something.

“And me, I’ve always known where I want to be, I can tell you where I want to settle down; Malibu, California. I just want to be there smoking my weed in like six years from now

with my wife and my two kids.

“I already know everything I want in this life. I know because I feel like you’re supposed to know. If not, why are you living? Why are you

working? Why am I even singing? Am I singing because I want to be singing forever?

“I can’t be singing forever now. I’m singing because after singing, I have to do something. I have to be somewhere.

“I have to say ‘yes, this is what my life turned out to be.’ From going to primary school, going to high school, going to uni, it has to result in

something. It would be no use for me living if I don’t have a destination.”

Peruzzi has been signed to Davido Music Worldwide since 2018 and has a new album titled ‘Rum and Boogie’.
