In a refreshing and revealing interview with B2G Network, legendary Nigerian music icon 2Baba peeled back the layers of stardom to reveal that he is focused on the goal. He also disclosed the simple, grounded lifestyle that keeps him centered amid fame and public scrutiny.
Known for his timeless hits and unshakeable cool, 2Baba surprised fans by sharing that his self-care routine is as minimalistic as it gets. “I drink water a lot and I mind my business a lot,” he said, flashing his trademark smile. “I don’t have any die-hard routine. No gym. Once in a while, I jog, and performing on stage is my exercise. I just try to rest as much as I can.”
While many celebrities flaunt structured health regimes and luxurious wellness plans, 2Baba’s back-to-basics approach offers a refreshing contrast. But beyond physical upkeep, the veteran artist stressed the importance of mental clarity and self-accountability.
“Accepting responsibility for your actions, that’s the key,” he said. “You don’t have to deceive yourself. When you do, na yourself you dey deceive.”
The conversation delved deeper into the emotional toll of fame. 2Baba candidly addressed how public ridicule and harsh commentary can sting, even for someone with his experience.
“Sometimes people talk and make you the butt of jokes. It hurts,” he admitted. “But you have to grow thick skin. I just tell myself, ‘I know where I’m going is bigger than all these things.’”
In a world where celebrities often mask vulnerability with bravado, 2Baba’s honesty is both rare and refreshing. His words serve as a powerful reminder that staying grounded, owning your truth, and protecting your peace are the ultimate keys to longevity, not just in music, but in life.
