YOU’RE GOING TO WEAR GELE TO MY WEDDING… FLIRTING IN YORUBA & HOLIDAY ROMANCES FT @keystheprince

podcast March 19, 2026


Background

Welcome back to Get The Gist 🎙️✨ where chats are chaotic, opinions are loud, and the stories are way too honest 😭

This week we’re joined by Keys the Prince and from the start… WE GET STRAIGHT IN! We dive into growing up between Nigeria 🇳🇬 and London 🇬🇧, which somehow turns into a struggle to pronounce Harlesden like it’s “lasagna” 💀. Of course, the Irish accent debate gets VERY heated 🇮🇪.

Food chaos ensues: fried rice lasting two weeks (??), Jollof taking the crown, and the African habit of putting EVERYTHING in the freezer. ⛪ Then church life gets wild, with Keys revealing he was an altar boy attending two churches every Sunday, plus the VIP seat confusion 😭

👀 Naturally, we had to talk Nigerian men,from womaniser stereotypes to emotional rollercoaster dating while Keys insists he’s “not like the others” (we’ll let you decide). 💬 We also touch on holiday romances, dating fans, flirting in Yoruba, shooting your shot, and Keys’ music with that undeniable Nigerian main character energy ✨
