Nigerian rapper, Sidney Esiri popularly known as Dr Sid has revealed the reasons behind his relocation to the United States (US) in the year 2023.

Dr Sid disclosed his motivation in an interview on the ‘No Man’s Friend’ podcast, stating that he left the shores of Nigeria for Houston, Texas, after obtaining employment in a company based in New York that demands working remotely, among other things.

“I moved to Houston, Texas last year. I got a job in a company in New York and they offered me the opportunity to move to the state and work remotely in any state of my choice.

 

“I have family in Houston, my best friend lives here, so living in Houston was an easy choice,” he said.

The singer added: “I have been working on gaming, tournaments, game development and education training for the last year and a half.”

Dr. Sid’s music career started as a choreographer in Trybe Records in 1999.

He experienced an upward career trajectory when he recorded his first album titled ‘Turning Point’ under the Mo’ Hits Records in 2009.
