Bustle Booth
I dont work hard, I hardly work.
Once I posted it, my phone stopped working because of the engagement I received.
Like myself, the video was short, witty, relatable, and evocative of emotion.
Sayo, who lives in London, has loved writing poetry since she was a child.
After her first video went viral, she had a lightbulb moment and kpoetry was born.
Why such a solemn piece?
Her themes range from commentating onNetflixsTinder Swindlerandhaving sneaky linkstospotting red flags, tothatMatt Hancock scandal.
But it was mainly old-school Nollywood films that gave her the idea.
So I adopted this in my work.
And it was a hit.
So where does she find inspiration from?
Now, I dont work hard, I hardly work, she says.
Get to know more about Sayo including her favourite karaoke song in her Bustle Booth questionnaire below.
