9ice goes to school

After having one of the most successful albums of all
time, 9nice has decided to go back and pursue his
career as a lawyer.In this interview with Nigerian
Tribune..he says its always been his dream.
You were said to have pulled out of your Law
programme at the Lagos State University to face music.
That decision paid off, but you seem not to be happy
about it now?
I didn’t pull out because of music; I left school because
I was unable to pay my school fees. While I was on the
street, I gave hundred percent of my life to music and
it paid off eventually.
When I was in school, I was just doing music for fun
until I left school. At that point, I decided that I was
going to face music passionately and from that point,
things changed.Your decision to leave school wouldn’t
have gone down well with your parents, how did they
react to it and what was constantly coming to your
mind back then?
It was not an easy decision to make. There were days
that I had to live in the studio. Talking about my
parents’ reaction, I had to lie for a while, pretended as if
all was well. Before my parents knew I wasn’t in school,
it was too late to complain because I was already on
TVs, making money and rocking shows all
around.Would you consider going back to school
someday?
I’m in school already, studying public safety and
Common Law at Capella university. It is an online
programme. I can’t think of any other course except
law. Would you trade your being famous for something
else if you look at some of the bad side of fame that
you have experienced over time?
Yes, I will love to trade fame with some silent life that
does not arrogate too much attention to one, but it has
got nothing to do with any bad experience. No matter
what you do or who you are, there’s always a difficult
time and life challenges that you can’t run away from.
But I will really love to trade because I wish to be a
lawyer.That has always been my dream.Do you think
life would have been different for you should you have
been a lawyer?
Honestly, life as a normal person is fine and more
wonderful, free, fair and peaceful. But as a public
figure, you enjoy more and you pay more in terms of
the price you pay for being famous. If I come to this
world again, I would prefer normal life.
