Singer Alfred Inetimi Odon, aka Timaya, has in a chat with Sunday Scoop, revealed how he gets his inspiration sometimes.

According to the singer who has achieved a lot in the music industry from his days as a Port Harcourt-born youth hungry for fame and fortune, starring at women's bums inspires him and he is unapologetic about that.

“I love the human backside because it is very beautiful and just by staring at it, I get ideas for songs. And that is how songs like Ukwu and Shake Your Bum, came about. 

However, I also sing about many other things so it is balanced. A lot of people are hypocritical because songs about bums usually have the highest downloads but people would come out to criticise them. So who is downloading them? 

I have learnt that you can never please everybody and I don’t waste my time trying to do that. I stay true to myself, and if you’re cool with it, it’s okay. And if you’re not down with it, that’s also okay. Life goes on,” he said.

Revealing a side of him that is rarely seen, Timaya spoke affectionately about his daughters. He said:

“I did not know I could love anyone the way I love my children. I have a very wonderful relationship with my daughters and I relate with them a lot so they also see me as a friend.”
