At a young age, Duncan started off as a drummer in his local church, which was the foundation of what has earned him fame and fortune.
Duncan studied Audio Engineering and had his NYSC in Lagos as a sound instructor.
After his one year mandatory service to fatherland, the singer returned to PH in 2006 and worked with a number of local recording studios.

He then created his followup albums like Footprints (2012), Grace & Talent (2014) and The Certificate (2016), all the while remaining on PH.
Duncan got married in 2015, a marriage which ended shortly on allegations of domestic abuse.
The singer also owns a construction company which is said to be doing very well and occupied him during the period when he was away from the music scene.
The self-styled Eze Pitakwa has remained consistent in delivering his best, and this was testified to, when Davido revealed that his hit song “If” was inspired by Wene Mighty.
