My Relationship With Basketmouth – Singer

Fast-rising singer, Lisa Viola, has revealed her relationship with actor and comedian, Bright Okpocha aka Basketmouth.
According to the Angolan-born and Australian-raised singer, she met Basketmouth in Australia many years back but was unaware of his popularity until much later.
Speaking of her first encounter with the famous comedian, Viola said, “I met Basket in Australia at his show many years ago. To be honest I didn’t know who he was as I didn’t really follow comedy like that. I remember being introduced to him and telling him about my music.
“He posted my music video on his FB page. I always remembered that. When I found out I was coming to Nigeria, I messaged him on social media. I really had no idea how much of an icon he was until I got here. He’s a beloved Nigerian superstar!
“Basketmouth has been my mentor. Since I got to Nigeria. He has given me such an insight into the industry, the culture, and also the business. When I grow up, I want to be BasketMouth! but a lady version, of course.
“Now, he is the executive producer of my soon-to-be-released EP, Mixed Feelings, which was produced by Duktor Set. The EP will be out on August 19 but I already have a song, Lagos featuring Majeed, my label mate rocking the airwaves,” the singer said.

The first daughter of three kids, the singer moved to Australia with her mother at 5, due to the Civil War in Angola where she lost her father.
Sadly, she lost her mother last December.
Reminiscing about her parents, she said, “I lost my mother in Dec just before Christmas. She was a feisty Angolan woman who raised us to be fiercely proud of our African heritage. She wanted me to get married and have a family more than anything. My stepfather is Swiss and so our house was basically the United Nations especially during birthday celebrations as our parents had friends from Mali, Kenya, Serbia, the UK, and Portugal you name it.

“When I understood that people in Nigeria tend to broke shame celebrities, I had to make a decision if I want to let that have power over me. Because if you don’t deal with that, it will have exceeding power over you.
“If you are not comfortable with the fact that some fans can broke shame you if they see you driving a car they consider below your level, then you are going to continue adjusting to their expectations. And that is how you go broke. You go broke trying to adjust to people’s expectations.
“One of the things that Nigerians are concerned about is their perceptions. And statistically, we are a country where most people don’t have money. It took me time to mentally prepare myself to accept being broke shamed. All our celebrities who were flying private jets 20 years ago are no longer affluent,” he expressed.
