In a chat with Saturday Beats , Azadus explained the
reason for his hiatus.
He said,
"It is obvious I left Kennis because my contract with
them expired and my career dwindled. When I was with
Kennis Music, all hands were on deck to push my music
out but now that I am on my own, everything is left to
me. But the major reason I was out of the limelight was
because I was attacked by armed robbers. I was shot in
my neigbhourhood at FESTAC. I was away from music
for over a year because I was hospitalised. That was
what affected me. I could not move freely because I lost
faith in the security around where I was staying. I hardly
went out because I was afraid of another attack. I went
through a lot of trauma."
Addressing the broke issue, he said:
"If people think I am broke, they should come and give
me money. At least I thank God that I am taking care of
my family. Being broke is not a crime; it is not an
offence. I don't know when being broke became an offence
in the country. I am broke and people that think they
have money should come and give me money. Even
Greece and some other countries were broke at a time.
They went through recession. That is no news. News is
talking about my music; if it is better than it was or
worse. It is not about my personal life but what connects
me and the world; how people feel my music. People
should talk about my music and not my personal life," |
