In a recent episode of the In My Opinion podcast, Nigerian rapper Chibuzor Nelson Azubuike, popularly known as Phyno, shared his views on how marriage could affect an artiste’s success in the music industry. The rapper, known for his iconic use of Igbo in his songs, described music as a “jealous career” that demands full commitment and leaves little room for distractions, including marriage.

“Check everybody. Statistically, I feel so. Music is a jealous career,” Phyno said when asked if marriage could hinder a musician’s career. He pointed out that many successful artistes have had to delay or abandon their education entirely to focus on their craft, citing the immense dedication required to thrive in the industry.

“That’s why people drop out of school to face music. The ones that had to juggle the two, you have to give them kudos because it is not easy,” Phyno explained. He also acknowledged that some artistes take breaks to return to school after reaching a certain level of fame, but most find they need to dedicate their energy to one pursuit at a time.

Phyno also spoke about how personal experiences shape an artist’s work. “Another thing about music is that it is what you pass through that you put into it, life experiences, except if you use songwriters,” he said, highlighting the deeply personal nature of music creation.

Phyno, a native of Anambra State who was raised in Enugu, began his career as a music producer in 2003 before transitioning to rapping. His debut studio album, No Guts No Glory, released in March 2014, produced hits such as “Ghost Mode,” “Man of the Year,” “Parcel,” and “O Set,” cementing his status as one of Nigeria’s leading artistes.

Through his comments, Phyno shed light on the sacrifices artistes make to succeed in music. His perspective invites broader discussions about how personal commitments like marriage and education intersect with the demands of a highly competitive industry.
