Nigerian music icon, Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has opened up about the personal challenges of balancing his successful music career with raising his children.
The award-winning singer made the revelation during an interview with Voice of Nigeria, where he reflected on fatherhood, fame, and misconceptions surrounding his private life.
Struggles With Fatherhood And Fame
According to 2Baba, although he feels blessed to have eight children, one of his greatest regrets is not being able to spend enough time with them due to the demands of his career.
The music star described his children as amazing and brilliant, noting that the limited time he has shared with them collectively sometimes weighs heavily on him emotionally.
Reacts To ‘Womaniser’ Label
The legendary singer also addressed widespread assumptions about his personal life, rejecting claims that he is a womaniser. He explained that while he is open about his admiration for women, he considers himself more of a “lover boy” who loves deeply.
Speaks On Wife, Natasha
Responding to public commentary about his wife, Natasha, particularly suggestions that she is overly controlling, 2Baba said such claims are often far from the reality of their relationship.
He described her as a brilliant and strong woman, adding that public opinions and online criticisms can sometimes be hurtful despite developing a thick skin over time.
‘I’m Naturally Shy’
Despite his status as a global performer, 2Baba revealed that he is naturally a shy person who sometimes prefers solitude and quiet moments in nature.
He explained that while his profession demands constant public engagement, he values private time to relax and reflect.
Fans and industry watchers have continued to react to the singer’s candid revelations, which have offered a deeper glimpse into his life beyond music and fame.
