2Baba Breaks Silence on Going Broke, Reveals Why He Can Quit Music: “How Did Money Finish?”

• The legendary singer 2baba has stated he can survive without music, thanks to smart investments
• The African Queen crooner insisted he's comfortable even without music and focused on life beyond fame
• Online users praised the singer for his humility, while others question the silence in recent years

Nigerian music icon, Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has finally broken his silence following recent rumours suggesting he may be broke or struggling financially.

In a candid chat on the latest episode of the +234 Mzansi Podcast, co-hosted by popular actor and media personality Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, aka Nedu, the African Queen hitmaker shut down the speculations, declaring that he's far from broke.

2Baba confidently said during the podcast episode that has since gone viral:

“I’m not broke. I invested my money. I can live with or without music”

The veteran music star explained that while he may not be making headlines every day or flooding social media with luxury, he has made solid investments over the years and lives a very comfortable life.

According to 2Baba, he doesn’t feel pressured to maintain a public image or chase relevance like some of his colleagues. He said he’s at peace with his journey and not moved by the need to prove anything.

He said, adding that he has a life outside music and fame:

“I don’t have anything to prove to anybody anymore. I’ve done my part, and I’m still doing things behind the scenes."

The singer also subtly addressed fans who often compare him to newer-generation artists who are more visible on social media and in the entertainment headlines.

He stated:

“Not everybody has to be on the gram 24/7 to prove success. I’m chilling”
