Sensational Nigerian singer John Ighodaro, better known as Johnny Drille, has recounted how he felt like a “loser” after failing to make it to the top 10 of MTN Project Fame.

The newlywed singer said she was featured in the talent show in 2013.

He disclosed this in a recent interview with reality star Kim Oprah on Hip TV’s program, Trending.

He said, “A lot of people don’t know, but I was on Project Fame in 2013. I did not make the top 10, not to mention win. But for me, it was like the beginning of everything for all these

“I know that when I was evicted that night, something was born in me. For the first time in my life, I feel like a loser. I feel like I'm not worth anything. That night, I made the decision that I was going to become a great person, a great musician, and a great artist. So, it was from then that I started doing music professionally.”

Johnny Drille came into the spotlight in 2015 after releasing his hit song ‘Wait For Me’ under Don Jazzy’s Mavin Records.
