1. Briefly introduce yourself.
My real name is Nweke Chibuzor Timothy, and I am popularly known by my stage name Taker Gex. I am an Afrobeat and Hip-hop artist, passionate about blending rhythm, storytelling, and youthful energy into my music. I am currently based in Asaba, Delta State, Nigeria. I was born on July 4, 2008, and my place of birth is Enugu State. I was raised by my mother, Lucy Nweke, who has played an important role in supporting and encouraging my dreams. My background and environment have shaped my sound and strengthened my desire to succeed in music.
2. What inspired or motivated you to pursue a career in music?
Music has always been a part of my life. From the moment I was born, music has given me joy, happiness, and positive energy. It is something that naturally connects to my emotions and helps me express myself freely. Whenever I listen to music or create my own, I feel alive and confident. That deep love for music is what motivated me to choose it as a career and continue pushing forward, even at a young age.
3. When did you officially begin your music career?
I officially started my music career in September 2025. That was the point when I decided to take music seriously, record songs, and present myself as an artist with a clear vision. Since then, I have been focused on improving my craft and working towards becoming a recognized name in the industry.
4. Have you recorded or released any songs? If yes, kindly list all released songs.
Yes, I have recorded and released two songs so far. The titles of my released songs are “Chisom” and “My Dream.” These songs represent my early journey in music and my desire to share my story with listeners. I am also working hard on new music and plan to release another song before March, as part of my growth and consistency as an artist.
5. Why did you register for the FameNet Reality TV Show 2026?
I registered for the FameNet Reality TV Show 2026 because I believe it is a powerful platform that can help take my music career to another level. FameNet provides visibility, exposure, and learning opportunities for young and rising artists like me. Being part of the show will help me grow, connect with the industry, and showcase my talent to a wider audience.
6. Do you believe you can be among the first 50 artists to reach 1,000 votes and qualify as a housemate?
Yes, I truly believe that by the grace of God, I can be among the first 50 artists to reach 1,000 votes. I have faith in myself, my talent, and the people who support me. I know that with determination, prayers, and encouragement from fans, it is possible.
7. What message do you have for your fans, and how can they support you to qualify for the show?
I want to appreciate those who have voted for me already, and I have told my fans and friends to please come out and support me. Many of them have already shown love and promised to vote for me, even though some said they will do so later this month or next month. I appreciate everyone who believes in me, and I encourage them to keep supporting me by voting and sharing my journey with others. Please download my voting flyer and follow the steps to keep voting for me.

8. How would you feel if you eventually qualify as one of the FameNet housemates?
If I eventually qualify as a FameNet housemate, I would be extremely happy. It would mean a lot to me and would be a dream come true. It would also motivate me to work harder and prove that young talents can rise with the right platform and support.
9. Where do you see yourself in the next five (5) years?
In the next five years, I see myself becoming bigger and more popular, even greater than my current inspirations after this Reality TV Show. I believe I will grow into a major Afrobeat star, known both in Nigeria and beyond. I see success, recognition, and a strong musical legacy ahead of me.
