A senior colleague told me I can’t make it in music

Nigerian singer, Lawal Micheal Nasiru Bolaji, popularly known as Nasboi, has intricately shared the story of his musical journey.

Reflecting on the beginning of his musical odyssey, Nasboi traces it back to 2014 when he secured a significant signing under the guidance of acclaimed Nollywood actress, Omotola Kehinde Jalade.

Speaking as a guest on Trending with HipTV, he recalled a moment when a colleague once doubted his potential in the music industry.

Nasboi stated, “In 2014, I got signed as a musician to renowned Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade Kehinde. I delved into something I like – photography. So, I started off as a photographer in 2018. So, one random day, I was sitting in the car and I decided to mimic Davido. The reason I mimicked Davido is not for skit-making. I mimicked Davido to get attention for my music.

“I know a senior colleague who said, you cannot make it as a musician. Shout-out to Tubaba. He is always supporting me everywhere I go, even if I decide to be a footballer today, Tubaba gives me maximum support. Tubaba posted and said, “You are a cheat to your colleagues, how will you be good here and there.”
