Lil Jojo: The Name is Jonathan Cyril aka Lil Jojo. I’m an easy going guy, I’m From Nsukka local Government Area of Enugu state, Nigeria. I was born in Kaduna state. I never knew I was going to do music, but I fell in love with it along the way and I’m still very much in love with it. I’m a Secondary School graduate, and now I do music full time.
Film Afrique: How old is Lil Jojo?

Film Afrique: Before Aki and Pawpaw nobody knew you and your Music would you say they inspired or motivated you?
Lil Jojo: Naa they didn't, then I was still kinda finding my way, and today at least a reasonable amount of people have seen and heard of me, but I have an advantage over them because i can act as well, but music is where my heart is and i do music perfectly well.
