Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Olamilekan Agbeleshe, widely known as Laycon has shed light on the reason behind his temporary departure from the music scene.
News About Nigeria reports that in a recent interview with media personality J. Malone, Laycon revealed that he took a break from music because he was no longer finding it enjoyable.
The reality TV star, who gained popularity for his musical talent during his time in the Big Brother Naija house, opened up about his decision to step back from his passion.
Laycon shared that he had been involved in music from a young age, and it had always been a source of joy for him.
However, the singer reached a point where the fun seemed to fade away, prompting him to take a sabbatical.
He said: “I have been doing music ever since I can remember, to be honest.
“Music was fun. Music has always been fun for me, which was another reason why I took a break; it stopped being fun.
“Ever since I was little, I always loved singing. I just listen to people’s music, and I just want to sing it. I didn’t think about creating mine until I was like 13. I actually just exchanged these people’s lyrics for mine. I still used their flows and rhythms. And that was when I started writing music.
“I started putting out music in 2012 when I got into the university. But my first major project was in 2016, titled ‘The Young, Black and Gifted’ EP.”
