Nigerian singer and entrepreneur, Oluwatosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi, has revealed that proceeds from his music career alone would not have been sufficient to sponsor his wedding to Temi Otedola, daughter of billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola.
Speaking in a recent interview, the artist explained that while his music has brought him fame and recognition, his entrepreneurial ventures and investments have played a more significant role in his financial stability. He emphasized that people often underestimate the importance of diversifying income streams beyond entertainment.
Mr Eazi, who is also the founder of emPawa Africa, noted that his success in business and investments has provided the financial backbone to support major life events such as his wedding. He added that the misconception that musicians rely solely on earnings from shows and music sales is misleading, especially in a rapidly changing industry where revenue can be unstable.
The disclosure comes months after Mr Eazi and Temi Otedola held their wedding ceremony, an event that attracted widespread attention due to the couple’s prominence in both the entertainment and business sectors.
Fans have praised the singer for his honesty, with many acknowledging the importance of financial planning and entrepreneurship. Analysts also point out that his remarks highlight the growing trend of Nigerian entertainers investing in businesses outside music to secure long-term wealth.
Mr Eazi and Temi Otedola, who have been in a relationship for several years, continue to enjoy strong public admiration as one of Nigeria’s most celebrated celebrity couples.
