Sanjo: My type of music is the collaboration of different sounds like, raggea, hiphop,soul, and afro. But in one word I would say feel good music.

Que: What is the origin of the stage name, by the way?

Tommyteezy : Lol Well the story is pretty short. I dance a lot, because dancing was what I started with. I’m just a guy that dances a lot back in high school days and still do. So my friends started calling me chris breezy, like because of my dancing. So I just thought it will be nice to have my own name like that. A lot of people call me tommy so I just kinda remixed it a bit lol and I came up with tommyteezy.

Sanjo: Formerly I was knows as M.G , name given to me by friends because of my physical appearance. But  I didn’t really feel comfortable with it because it didn’t really appeal to the type of music that I love to make, I wasn’t eager to change it because I believe the perfect name will come to me in time. As years past by I realised that the name sanjo, that  I have gotten so use to is actually a nickname given to me by people that couldn’t  pronounce my full name , and  because it’s something unusual and unique , That’s why it stuck so I took it and ran with it.

Tommyteezy : There is a lot but , I will name a few. Am a huge fan of Wande coal, Banky w, 2face and paul play

Que: Who do you look forward to collaborating with?

Tommyteezy : That will be Wande coal like I just want to know how he makes all this banging songs

Sanjo: Lol who else other than the afro beat doctor himself Wande Coal

Que: What inspires you to make music?

Tommyteezy : Things that happen around me, and the energy that am feeling at that very moment

Sanjo: That will be my life and the strong desire to express some feelings that I wouldn’t show on a daily basis
