More recently, the music star welcomed a child with his new partner, Natasha Osawaru, a relationship that has continued to draw public attention following reports of a controversial marriage.
This development comes shortly after 2Baba shared his views on music and talent in the industry, insisting that there is no such thing as a “wack artist.”
In a separate video message, the veteran singer said every song is created to stir emotions and that success in music goes beyond talent alone.
“Every music is tailored to evoke an emotion, to create a spirit. There is nothing like a wack artist,” he said.

He added that many artistes often labelled as wack end up more successful because they understand the business side of music.
“That is why many of the so-called wack artists are more bankable than the talented ones. Because they understand that it is not the art itself, it is the marketing of that art,” he said.
The singer further stressed that no song can appeal to everyone, noting that acceptance depends largely on promotion and how well the music connects with its target audience.
“No matter how talented you are or how sweet your music is, there is no music that everybody likes. Everything is narrowed down to the marketing, promotion and the business. It is only those who resonate with your music that will like,” he added.
