Nigerian singer Oluwatosin Ajibade, better known as Mr Eazi, has insinuated that his earnings from music could not sponsor his wedding to billionaire heiress, Temi Otedola.
He further revealed that 2017-2018, when some of his best songs were released, was his most financially challenging year in the past decade.
The Afrobeat star disclosed this during a Friday interaction with fans on X, two weeks after he wedded Temi, daughter of billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola, in a private ceremony in Reykjavík, Iceland.
A fan had suggested Mr Eazi was trying to recoup his wedding expenses by releasing his new track, “Cassanova”.
Reacting, the singer said, “U think sey music go fit pay for that wedding my G? lol”.
However, another fan stated that Mr Eazi’s earnings from 2018 could have sponsored the wedding.
The fan, @ThisisEazee wrote, “Say ‘my music now’ because 2017-18 Mr Eazi music go do that wedding as many times as possible. No forget say you were once a taker.”
The 34-year-old singer released his critically successful second mixtape, Life Is Eazi, Vol. 1 – Accra to Lagos, in 2017.
Responding to the fan, the singer said, “You got a point tho, but 2017-18 is the brokest I’ve been in the last 9 years! But all the music I put out then enter like mad sha. I’m really thankful.”
