D’ Whales is described by other artists as a Real Show Man! He was born and raised in Benin city in Nigeria, but is since august 15th 1999 based in Linköping, Sweden. He lived in Nigeria all his life until June 1996 when he relocated to Gambia. D’ Whales is still remembered in Gambia for his originality and improvisations.
He actually introduced live Reggae/Ragga in the tourist industry where most bands only played cover songs to entertain the tourist from Europe. At first, the hotels didn’t like the idea but got amused by the turnovers and increasing numbers in every aspect. He played from hotel to hotel and met people from every path of the world, mostly Europeans, and many of them became fans.
