Musician Iyanii recently gave fans a surprisingly open look into the more private aspects of his life during a rapid, quickfire interview with Kalondu Musyimi from Mpasho.
The engaging session saw the artist discuss his current financial standing, his taste in cars, his unique sleeping habits, and his daily rituals, providing a down-to-earth perspective on the man behind the music.
A Glance at His M-Pesa Balance
Among the revelations, Iyanii openly shared details about his current M-Pesa balance. When asked directly about it, he stated that his balance was “around 45K”.
Wheels and Aspirations: Current and Dream Cars
Iyanii also revealed his current mode of transport, confirming he drives two vehicles. He owns a Peugeot 508 and an Audi Q5. Looking ahead, when probed about his ultimate automotive desire, Iyanii did not hesitate. His dream car is a Ferrari, indicating an ambition for high-performance luxury.
A Night Owl’s Schedule: Sleeping Habits
The musician’s sleeping patterns appear to be shaped significantly by his dedication to his craft. Iyanii admitted he is “not a morning person”.
This is largely due to the considerable amount of time he dedicates to his studio work at night. Consequently, his wake-up time is flexible and depends on his schedule, often being “mid-morning” if studio work isn’t pressing.
He further elaborated that he typically goes to sleep “in the morning most of the time”, highlighting a nocturnal work ethic common among many creative individuals.
“I’m not a morning person because I spend a lot of time in the studio at night.”
Morning and Nighttime Rituals
Iyanii also shared his personal rituals that bookend his days. Before finally going to sleep, the last thing he does is listen to music.
Conversely, the first thing Iyanii does after waking up in the morning is pray.
