See Spyro like never before on MTV Base’s Inside Life: The Hustle Diaries premiere on September 4!
MTV Base returns with Inside Life: The Hustle Diaries, and the debut episode is nothing short of inspiring. Stepping into the spotlight is Oludipe David Oluwasanmi, better known to millions as Spyro; the voice behind chart-topping hits like Who’s Your Guy? and Billings.
From the streets of Mushin, which he fondly calls the “Land of hustle,” to the bright lights of Lekki, Spyro takes viewers on a deeply personal journey. He opens up about his humble beginnings as a pastor’s son, his first hustle selling recharge cards, and how gospel music shaped his sound. Along the way, Spyro revisits the neighbourhoods and schools that defined his early years, reconnecting with old friends and mentors, who never stopped believing in him.
But this is more than nostalgia. In candid moments, Spyro reveals the struggles behind the music from near career changes and rejection to the defining turning point that led to the global success of Billing and Who’s Your Guy. He also reflects on the importance of faith, perseverance, and the friendships that kept him grounded, including a powerful story of sacrifice and support that helped launch his career.
Viewers will see how he turned setbacks into stepping stones for greater success, surprise appearances, as well as a rare glimpse of Spyro’s other passions, including his love for interior design. With laughter, surprises, emotional reunions, and honest revelations, this episode is raw and uplifting.
