Seasoned
music producer and Mavin record boss, Don Jazzy, has revealed that when he
started his musical career it was not all about making money. He made the
revelation during a chat with Big Brother Naija housemates when he paid a
surprise courtesy visit to the Big Brother house yesterday.
Responding
to questions from housemates, The singer said that he was never money conscious
because all he wanted to do was make music. He stressed that he was never
bothered even when he wasn’t paid after doing gigs and shows.
“My journey
has been crazy. Since I started my musical career, I’ve not been in any
situation that I felt like I wasn’t successful; even as I was in the church
playing for my church elders, I felt I was Michael Jackson doing my thing. I
was comfortable doing it, I did not even know whether I would get money. When I
was doing Juju music in London, it was the same thing, if you give me money
today, fine, the day if you don’t give me, no problem”, he said.
He went
further to say that D’banj’s parents were primarily responsible for financing
the establishment of Mo-hits records, a record label he co-owned with D’banj.
“Until Mo-Hits time, when we started the company business, we were like this
thing is attracting a lot of people from across Africa and the world, so we
have to try and grow it into an empire.
