My album is about life, about the struggles of being a man. It touches our consciousness and as the title is ‘Man and Many Things’ it is me voicing out; there is love and just everything that keeps our souls going”, he said.

One being a diasporan afrocentric artist, he said that it does not matter because the world is a global village now.

“Nigeria and the entire Africa can now be reached from anywhere and all I have to do is put out something great out there, people will love it and they will hear me.

Afrobeat is also big in the USA and you’ll never believe the kind of audience you’ll get here and if you have the backing of people from home, that will be icing on the cake””

Mandedes also said that as a healthcare practitioner, one of his goals is to do something back home to help people enjoy quality healthcare.

He added that no matter how big his musical career gets, he will never quit nursing.

“I won’t quit nursing per say, but my goal is to build hospitals in places like Nigeria and other African countries to help other people in need of healthcare” he said.
