Purple Plutonian plans collaborations with Wizkid, others

Talented singer, Onyembi Mbuli Mitchel better known as Purple Plutonian, has indicated he would love to collaborate with Grammy award-winning artiste, Wizkid.

The ‘Shege’ crooner who is signed to Sounds From Pluto, a record label owned by Gift Bernard Essien and Daniel Obidiah, said, “I will love to collaborate with a lot of them. But off the top of my head, I would love to work with Wizkid, Adekunle Gols, Sarz, Runtown, Omah Lay, to mention but a few. I really like what they are doing musically right now and I feel like I can make something amazing with them”.

Shedding light about a few things his fans need to know about him, the suave entertainer averred: “Not much to tell, I was a spoiled kid who got wise the hard way. I got wise experiencing it all along the way. For my secondary school education, I have the expected SSCE. I am currently an undergraduate of the University of Lagos”.

As a versatile artist, the University of Lagos undergraduate said he does not have a favourite genre of music, adding that he has a large music taste.
