In a recent interview with Punch Newspapers, Nigerian musician Oluwatosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi, opened up about his decision to pursue a career in music over football. The musician, who gained fame with his Afrobeats hits, revealed that he turned down a potential offer from Chelsea FC, a decision that has since shaped his life and career. According to Punch Newspapers, Chelsea FC approached Mr Eazi before they secured the signature of John Obi Mikel, another Nigerian football star. However, Mr Eazi, who was then studying at the University of Ghana, chose to focus on his music, a choice that has since paid off. The musician has since released multiple hit songs and built a successful career in the music industry. For Mr Eazi, the decision to pursue music was not a difficult one. ‘I’ve always loved music, and I knew that was where my passion lay. Football was just a hobby for me’, he told Punch Newspapers. His decision to focus on music has not only given him a successful career but also allowed him to inspire and mentor other upcoming artists. Mr Eazi’s story serves as a reminder that passion and determination can lead to success, no matter the path chosen. According to Punch Newspapers, Mr Eazi’s latest project, ‘Something Else’, is set to be released soon. Nigerian music fans can look forward to more hits from the Afrobeats sensation.
