Mr Eazi, a globally renowned Afrobeats star, investor, and entrepreneur, recently opened up about the significant impact that Ghanaian artists Sarkodie and Mugeez had on his career during his university days.
During his university days, Mr. Eazi, a well-known Afrobeats star, investor, and entrepreneur, spoke about how Ghanaian artists Sarkodie and Mugeez greatly influenced his career.
In his role as an event organizer in university, Mr. Eazi had opportunity to book artists for an award show he organized. However, some artists were unable to attend due to financial constraints.
“People caught me and that was where upcoming artists in my school then started being my friend so that I can book them and obviously making money and we lost more money than we made throwing parties but we kept on doing it, we loved it, to have projects and see it come together, so we began to switch to award shows and I had the first social awards of my university and that was when I booked Sarkodie, R2Bees and Wande Coal, as a student then and I remember Wande Coal didn’t appear on the show and people thought I had run away with their money and I didn’t know that he didn’t receive his full money,”
Mr Eazi recounted.
According to the ‘Legalize’ singer, despite not fully compensating Sarkodie and Mugeez, they demonstrated their support by attending and performing at the event.
I recall pleading with Sarkodie, offering him $2,500.00, asking him to perform even though I hadn’t fully compensated him yet. He graciously agreed and took the stage, saving me in the process. This is why, even to this day, I consider R2Bees’ Mugeez not just a friend, but a brother. He joined me on stage and delivered an outstanding performance.
