Blaqbonez: “University made me feel like a failure”

Nigerian rapper and graduate of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Blaqbonez, has recalled how his days in the university made him feel like a failure. The graduate of engineering said while others were getting As and having a future that looked bright; he was dropping mixtapes and hoping it got to public space.

Expressing gratitude for how far he has come, Blaqbonez added that he almost got depressed; and didn’t know how he would have taken care of his mother if he wasn’t successful in music.

He concluded by stating that his “serious friends” in school are also doing well in their respective fields.

He wrote:
