About the Hosts
Kalakuta Koj
Oluwasayo Osikoya, better known as KOJ or Kalakuta KOJ, is a self-proclaimed Professional Fun Guy. By day, you'll find him living up to his title as Burna Boy's number 1 fan, while simultaneously doling out advice that, admittedly, may not be of much use to anyone of sound mind.
Dubbed the "R&B Papi", nightfall often finds him brooding over tunes that champion the art of Dirty Mackin’. #MakeDirtyMackinGreatAgain
Above all, he revels in a hearty laugh—though be warned, might just be at your expense.
