. He is mostly associated with the ghetto singers in Ajegunle such as Baba Fryo.

 He got his nickname through his grandmother’s elder sister’s son who was popularly known as Showboy . Showboy brought him up, so, he had to adopt the name, “Showkid” as a child. But as he grew older, his friends changed it to “Showkey”.

The “Galala King” was the first artist to start the Nigerian Dancehall style. Instead of using the Jamaican patois, Daddy Showkey decided to use Pidgin English for his music and invented a dance style that changed the Nigerian dancehall scene. Showkey famous hit are "Diana", Somebody Call my name" Fire Fire & One day.
