Afrobeats star Mr Eazi recently opened up about one key principle he believes has helped shape his journey to success—marrying a good wife. In a brief but heartfelt conversation with a Gambian content creator who ran into him and his wife, Temi Otedola, on the streets of London, Mr Eazi didn’t hesitate when asked about the principles of success. His response was simple: marrying a good wife.

He emphasized how important it is for young men to surround themselves with the right kind of support. According to him, beyond just choosing a good partner, success also demands discipline, patience, and a strong fear of God. These, he said, are values that build a strong foundation not only for career growth but for life in general.

Reflecting on his journey in the music industry, Mr Eazi acknowledged that being doubted or second-guessed can be discouraging. But rather than letting disbelief break him, he explained how he used those moments as fuel to push harder and stay focused. For him, rejection and skepticism were not roadblocks—they were motivation.

He also touched on something deeply personal and cultural: the strong inner drive that many Nigerians carry. He described it as a kind of natural confidence, a determination that’s hard to explain but clearly present in the way Nigerians carry themselves. Laughing, he joked that maybe it comes from eating eba and soup.

Mr Eazi publicly confirmed his marriage to Temi Otedola in November 2023 through a birthday message to her father, Femi Otedola, a well-known billionaire businessman in Nigeria. With love, purpose, and support on his side, Mr Eazi continues to inspire others with his music and mindset.
