Nigerian singer and songwriter Oluwatobiloba Daniel Anidugbe popularly known as Kizz Daniel has opened up on the kind of relationship he had with his late father.
While speaking in a podcast interview, the singer stated that the loss of his father inspired his track ‘Al-Jannah’.
“When my dad was alive, he was my best friend,” Kizz Daniel said.
He explained that the song was a tribute to the ones he has lost to death.
“Al-Jannah” means “paradise”. I wanted to write a tribute song. We’ve lost people in the past. We lost our son in 2021; I lost my dad in 2015; my wife lost her mum in 2024; I lost my step-mum; we lost a whole lot of people. I wanted to make a song for everyone, not just one person. It’s about our loved ones we have lost in this journey of life. I think I was able to accomplish that by using the word friend in the song, ” he said.
Kizz Daniel lost his father on the 9th of May 2015, just few days after his 21st birthday.
