I Quit $6000/ Month Job For Music – Mr Eazi

Nigeria singer, Mr Eazi has revealed why he went into music. In an interview with Beat Fm, the singer revealed he had to dump his job which paid him about six thousand dollars per month in order to find fulfillment in music.
According to him, his family hated him for leaving his job but love him now since his breakthrough after two first shows in London.

“After I came back from Ghana, I got a job in oil and gas in Port Harcourt that paid about six thousand dollars per month but I quit because I was not finding fulfillment in it. I mean it was the same thing everyday, the same routine over and over again.
“The decision to quit the job finally hit me when my boss’ wife left him even with all the money he had.
‘After I left my job, I got my Masters degree and with all that qualification, I started selling phones in computer village and everyone thought something was wrong with me.
“Even my mother started praying special prayers for me but my father didn’t add that final voice that would have decided my fate.
‘My break finally came after I got an invite to do two shows in London that made me twelve thousand pounds which I used to shoot two videos. When I told my mother what I did with the money, she stopped talking to me for about three weeks.
“I had to move in with a friend because even my relatives didn’t want me around but everything finally changed when I went back to London for shows that fetched me really good money”.

Shade Or Nah – Mr Eazi Says Nigerian Artistes Copying His Style

In an interview with Capital Xtra radio in the UK, Mr Eazi spoke about his rise to fame, his relationship with Wizkid and other aspects about the music he makes. however, it seems the portion of whether or not his style of music is being copied by other Nigerian artistes is what has brought about the most attention. He talked about how most of the top Afrobeat acts to come out of Africa are either from Ghana or Nigeria and this makes the music similar. The Afrobeat sensation, Mr Eazi also spoke about how a lot of Nigerian artists are not original.

He stated that lately most Nigerian acts have started to incorporate Twi words such as “Maame, sika, odo, banku and waakye” into their songs. He said this phenomenon came about as a result of the popularity of his music.

A lot of Nigerians are not happy with his statements and are already calling him names on social media. On the other hand, his Ghanaians fans are in support of him and giving examples of such songs. If you would remember, earlier in the year, he tweeted that Nigerian music is heavily influenced by the Ghanaian sound. Such statements lead people to question where his loyalties lie.

So far no Nigerian artiste has come out to refute or deny his assertion. We will keep you posted of any development.
