House One Records songstress, Naomi Mac, may not yet be a big name in the Nigerian music industry, but since her emergence as 1st runner up at the maiden edition of Nigerian Idols in 2011, there has been a great twist in her coin of fate.

With  six singles to her credit, Naomi Mac seems to be finding a fertile ground in the music industry. In an exclusive chat with Showtime,  the singing sensation says she's not threatened by any female singer, including the likes of Tiwa Savage or Yemi Alade who are ruling the scene right now. She made other interesting revelations on what she has been up to and why she collaborated with YBNL's official producer, Pheelz,  and on her latest single, Ori Mi

“I've been scared of only one person and that person is myself; because I believe the sky is really wide, wide enough for everyone to take their place. Everyone is different and so if I stop being myself then nobody will be me, so I don't think I've any issues with the number of talented female singers in the industry. Tiwa Savage and Yemi Alade have their place and I have mine”

On why she decided to collaborate with Pheelz, she said “I've heard him sing and I really love his production, so since Ori Mi has a lot of percussion and I knew that Pheelz does a lot of percussive work and also having listened to a lot of Olamide's songs that he produced, I thought he would come good on the track. After producing the track, I had him sing on it for the first time and it was amazing, it was an amazing experience, trust me. Pretty soon I'm going to be compiling my album and dropping it.”“
