How many of you still remember SkyB? He was very popular back in the days. He did songs like 'My Baby' and 'Pray For Me' which became hits and were vibed to by Nigerians both young and old then. There was no party you would attend then, without SkyB's songs not played.

Today, life is no more rosy for the 'My Baby' crooner. He has moved from something to nothing as the Port-Harcourt born artist now lives in abject poverty.

Popular vlogger, Lucky Udu was with him recently as he shared his story of grace to grass.

Life happens!

My baby, my baby, my baby...

Lol. The guy music rock the airwaves and clubs for Jos that year.

Somehow I hated that song but got used to listening to it due to massive airplay.

Very repetitive lyrics... Only thing I kept hearing was "my baby"

Those days was fun Sha.

Just getting to know he is from PH now... I always used to think he was from Jos or a northerner because of the way they played that music that year.

These new generation crop of musicians are really enjoying... One hit and you done blow. Unlike the older set who had hits and still struggling to survive!

This guy made my day back then when I was in the uni. He didn't manage the fame well.

He sold his songs to a music producer, not knowing the songs will blow. The reason he didn't make money from music.

Hunger won finish the guy right now 😫, He stays around Elioz ( Rukpakulusi area )

My baby, my baby, my baby

My baby you're the one

You're the one that I'm calling

I'm calling baby, my baby...............



Some people don't invest wisely when they got opportunity, I won't be surprised if he squandered all the money he made back then on flexing.

His songs were released few weeks to valentine's day. It was on everyone's lips that period.

Links hotel was everyone's favourite back then. The money I spent on Vino Tinto in that hotel should be enough to sponsor 6 Nigerian girls in the university now.

I think it's N600-N700 back then. One pack can knock down 3 grown men. One pack of it with a bottle of sprite and N500 dried meat was a big flex then.

I bought it N300 in 2006. I should be in my final year in the university or probably just graduated then.

Comrade, I see you Sir

SKYB Sky BMC BOC CMC this is how we do Sky B with SB

May God elevate him again 🙏

My baby, my baby I'm calling.

No one knows tomorrow

Please I want to use this opportunity to warn RCCG members to stop asking me, "what's happening to the Naira" ? Please forward that question to your daddy G O who made a decree for Naira to rise since 2016 when 1$ was equal to #356.

Did SkyB ever really make it big? I hope this publicity helps rake in some cheddar for him

...
Since the music didn't pay very well, shouldn't he look for another hustle

No body is donating shi-shi to him.

Just be prayerful. No one knows the future. Hope things go well with him.

Song sounded more like 'Mam bebe' .

It was later I got ro realize it was 'my baby'
