Kcee revealed that he played a pivotal part in Iyanya's journey to stardom by bringing him to Lagos and providing accommodation for six years. Additionally, he shed light on his instrumental role in discovering Skibii’s talent and guiding him into the music industry limelight.

Despite Kcee's substantial contributions to their success, he expressed humility and a reluctance to boast about his role in their rise to fame.

In his words:

“I brought Iyanya to Lagos, I bought his first flight ticket. He stayed with me for six years in Lagos. I don’t talk about it.

“I also brought Skibii to the music industry. Skibii is grateful to me for that till today. When I was recording ‘Ojapiano,’ Skibii was in the studio with me. He was a co-writer of the song. We visit each other always. We are still like father and son.

“When I saw Skibii I was like, ‘I love this guy. I’m going to work with him.’ Even when he wasn’t popping, I always tell him, ‘Look into my eyes, you’re gonna blow. I don’t know how, I don’t know when, but you are a star. So that gave him a lot of confidence.

“I am that guy that know how to identify talent. When I see it, I know. And I would support.”
