I Was Once A Bricklayer – Reekado Banks by DahtzFestjayz(op): 9:11am On Apr 25, 2015

Prominent Mavin singer
and entertainer,
Reekado Banks is
currently one of the
most promising artistes
in the Nigerian music
sector.
Reekado has worked with
industry giants such as Don
Jazzy, Illbliss, Tiwa Savage,
Olamide, Korede Bello, Di’Ja
and Wale.
Reekado Banks
He explains however that his
story to the top was not as
smooth as some other people
in the industry.Reekado was born Solomon
Ayoleyi Hanniel and hails
from Ondo State.
He explains that he had to
hawk blenders in traffic and
work as a manual labourer at
a construction site in a bid to
earn some money to use for
his record after he told his
parents about his intention
to pursue a career in music. He said that during his
university days, a lecturer
had told him he would never
achieve his dreams after
preventing him from retaking
a test he missed.
His breakthrough came
during a Mavin Records
audition where he was
chosen out of over 5,000
hopefuls. The dreadlocked
act, now popular for his
ballad “Katapot”, credited
this triumph to God.
In his words, “There is no
amount of sacrifice that was
enough to get me something
this big.”
Reekado was known as spicy
before signing with Mavin
records.
