‘I quit my oil and gas job of $6,000 per month for music’ – Mr Eazi
Mr Eazi is in the news again. This time he’s speaking on his life and hustle before music and acording to him, he quit a lucrative oil and gas job that paid hom about $6,000 per month to do music becuase he was not finding fulfilment in it.
He was a guest on Beat FM’s Morning Rush today where he said,
‘after I came back from Ghana, I got a job in oil and gas in Port Harcourt that paid about six thousand dollars per month but I quit because I was not finding fulfillment in it. I mean it was the same thing everyday, the same routine over and over again. The decision to quit the job finally hit me when my boss’ wife left him even with all the money he had’.
He continued to say,
‘after I left my job, I got my Masters degree and with all that qualification I started selling phones in computer village and everyone thought something was wrong with me. Even my mother started praying special prayers for me but my father didn’t add that final voice that would have decided my fate. My break finally came after I got an invite to do two shows in London that made me twelve thousand pounds which I used to shoot two videos. When I told my mother what I did with the money she stopped talking to me for about three weeks. I had to move in with a friend because even my relatives didn’t want me around but everything finally changed when I went back to London for shows that fetched me really good money’.
