I Won’t Go Broke Even If I Quit Music – 2Baba Declares
Legendary Nigerian singer Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has confidently stated that he would remain financially stable even if he stops making music. The music icon made the remark in a recent interview, highlighting his years of strategic investments and diversified income streams. According to him, his success goes beyond just music as he has long prepared for life after the stage.
2Baba emphasized the importance of financial planning, stating that many artists struggle post-fame due to lack of foresight. He said his ventures into business and endorsements have provided him with enough cushioning to live comfortably without depending solely on music revenue. “I’ve been smart about my money,” he added, encouraging younger artists to think long-term.
The African Queen crooner also used the opportunity to reflect on the evolution of the Nigerian music industry. He praised the new generation of artists for taking Afrobeats global, but warned them not to repeat the financial mistakes of past entertainers. 2Baba's statement has sparked wide admiration and discussions across social media on artist sustainability and legacy.
