Most Musicians Thrive Better When Unmarried - Baba Fryo

‎Veteran Nigerian singer, Friday Igwe, popularly known as Baba Fryo, has stated that many musicians do not enjoy marriage.

‎ ‎According to the veteran star, lack of enjoyment in musicians' marriage is down to lack of understanding about their profession from their wives.

‎ ‎He added that most musicians thrive better when unmarried, stressing that there are only few exceptions in the music industry.

‎ ‎He also revealed that he doesn't take the women in his life seriously, noting that they were attracted to him because of the fame.

‎ ‎Baba Fryo made this revelation while speaking in a recent episode of The Honest Bunch podcast.

‎ ‎He said: ‎“Most musicians don’t enjoy marriage, except they are lying.

‎ ‎“They are not enjoying their marriages. Their spouses don’t understand their profession. Go and verify what I am saying.

‎ ‎“Most musicians thrive better when they are unmarried. It’s just a few of them who are still thriving after marriage maybe because their spouses already knew and accepted them for who they are.”

‎ ‎ ‎I don’t take them too seriously because I know it was my fame that attracted them to me.

‎ ‎“I thank God that I’m able to manage women because it takes wisdom to handle women.”
