Comedian and internet sensation, AY Poyoo, has recounted how he did not succumb to his mother’s pressure of becoming a medical doctor.

He said though his mother expected him to get into the ‘medical seat’ someday, he chose the path of music and comedy for himself.

“When I started, my mother wanted me to be a doctor. She wasn’t interested in what I was doing. She wasn’t in agreement that I chose to fool instead of being a doctor,” he said in an interview with GhanaWeb.

The “new face of GH rap” says his mother is still proud of him regardless.

“My mother is very proud, she is very happy about my craft,” he added.

Meanwhile, the AY Poyoo has been on the lips of many, particularly, social media fans ever since he joined the entertainment industry.

AY, who has for the first time tasted fame, said he never dreamt of being this popular.

“Sometimes when I look at myself on the screen I ask myself is this really me? What about me is so special that people are so excited about?” he established.
