Nigerian-American star, Jidenna Theodore Mobisson has revealed that his father had always wanted him to be an engineer.

While many would know him as the musician with the song, 'Classic Man', Jidenna claimed that he initially studied Sound Engineering at Stanford University before switching to Ritualistic Arts, knowing that “Stanford had a 'million-dollar studio which at the time was not typical in schools.”

Jidenna who is in the country for his homeland tour, later switched courses.

“So what I wanted to study was the art of rituals – Why do people paint their face before performances, why do we brush our teeth, why do we sing/dance and what does it do to our minds and how do you do this on a larger scale,” said Jidenna.

The artiste also disclosed that his homecoming would be detailed in a documentary.

“It's also about me going to where I grew up Enugu,” said Jidenna.

“Even though I'm from Imo State but Enugu was where my entire perspective was shaped. As a young child seeing the world, Enugu is where I remember.  I think the documentary will focus on me coming home and enjoying the experiences. Going down memory lane and I'm sure new memories will be created.”
