Philip Kayode Moses, widely known as Pheelz, is a multi-talented individual who excels as a record producer, singer, and songwriter. Despite venturing into the realm of secular music, Pheelz maintains his self-identity as a "church boy." His upbringing involved active participation in church music, where he played various instruments, including the keyboard, under the guidance of his father, a pastor in Lagos. This strong connection to his religious roots has not wavered.
Pheelz, also known for his hit single "Finesse," which unexpectedly gained immense popularity on TikTok, shared his creative journey in a recent interview with MTV Base Africa. At 29 years old, he reflected on his path, expressing the desire to someday transform his experiences into an inspirational movie for others to appreciate. His career has been a rollercoaster, from his time at Coded Tunez to leading YBNL and collaborating with notable artists like Olamide, Fireboy, Adekunle Gold, Lil Kesh, and more, even beyond the label's confines.
Despite the highs and lows, Pheelz remains grounded and connected to his musical beginnings. He fondly recalls himself as the 10-year-old kid playing the keys in the church while his father delivered sermons. He sees himself as the same passionate choir kid, and this unwavering connection to his roots continues to drive his artistic journey.
