This Is What You Never Knew About Me- Qdot

My name is FAKOYA QUDUS OLUWADAMILARE, better known by my stage name Qdot, I am a Nigerian musician from Lagos State, Ikorodu. I was born on 30th of April. I am a Hip Hop, Afro-Beat, Pure Afro Performer. I wasn’t born with a silver spoon. I am the first-born of my dad and the second born of my mum. I obtained a NATIONAL DIPLOMA IN GENERAL ARTS from YABA COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY LAGOS STATE. Though I wanted to study music, I didn’t know music wasn’t under the course that was why I dropped school to study music full-time. I was born in Ikorodu, Lagos State, where I grew up with my family. I attended the UNITED SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL, IKORODU.                              

I began my music career in early 2010. I have worked with several producers, including Antras, Indomix, Dtunes, Citi Boi And so on. I first musical release was "Story Of My Life". When the song
was released and sent to radio stations in Nigeria, it received a great acknowledgment from the public. The song became Radio Continental's theme song. I rose to prominence with my song "Alomo Meta" in 2013. I wanted to do something different in the music industry because there are lots of party songs out there and there was no money to promote the song myself, so, I had to do something different and unique. I came up with Alomo Metta which I decided to take to the church and called my producer, Antrass, to cook up the beat; and then, we worked together to make up the hit.I am not a Celestial Church member.I don't go to church or mosque.

I am half-Ibadan, half-Lagos. speaking on my style of music, I love doing Afro-centric music and African songs. So, Ibadan was just a freestyle song that I didn't intend to promote. Fortunately, Olamide (Badoo) liked the song, so he jumped on the song and we did fine on it. The music video for the song was shot by HG2 and was endorsed by all TV Stations.                                                  

In late 2014, I released a single titled "Orijin". Like its predecessors, the song received rave reviews.

I Alagbe is currently under my own entertainment outfit YORUBADBOI MUSIC, Managed by my long-time renowned manager AFOLABI AHMED.

speaking on why I left Omo Ita Entertainment, I was with them for a year. I actually signed a year deal and left when my contract expired. Besides, Omo Ita Entertainment didn’t want me to do my kind of music.so, I had to walk away to focus on myself and my style.

I am a proud to be on the streets and don't have time for mediocrity.
