The rise of Falz "The Bahd Guy" has been steady and impressive over the last few years but in the last 6 months his ascension and solidification into the Nigerian and African Hip Hop and Pop Culture lexicon has been nothing short of impressive. From the release of his impressive debut effort with a handful of breath taking videos, his popular skits on social media, a number of TV hosting gigs and now his budding acting career which helped him secure an AMVCA Trophy, Falz is quickly becoming one of Nigeria’s most popular and diverse entertainers.

On the season premiere of Season 3 The Juice, Ndani TV interviewed Falz for a candid and humorous chat. During the chat Falz shares that he was practicing as a lawyer before he decided to swap the courtroom for a studio. Contrary to popular belief Falz was recording music as far back as high school and recorded his first professional song in 2009 but his music career only began to take off after his antics on social media started going viral.
