Why I Dumped Music At The Peak Of My Career – Korede Bello

In order to obtain a degree in public communication, Nigerian musician Korede Bello left music at the height of his fame.

Recall With the release of his internationally popular hit song “Dorobucci,” Korede Bello, well known for his smash tune “Godwin,” entered the public eye. In 2014, Don Jazzy's Mavin Records offered him a record deal. As his songs regularly topped music charts nationwide at the time, Korede Bello was undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with in the Nigerian music business.

Speaking on why he dumped music at the peak of his career to return to school in a recent interview with The New Telegraph, Korede Bello said,

“I love education, not so much traditional education, but I love to learn how the world works and how the human mind operates. So getting a degree in Mass Communication seemed congruent with my profession.

“Writing a headline is similar to writing a chorus.” They both have to be catchy and evoke some emotional reaction. Music and news are both languages of emotional connection. So, it is a good thing to be educated about your passion. “I have observed that you can be the most famous or richest person on earth and still be unhappy or unsatisfied on the inside.” He said.
