In a recent interview, Nollywood actor Segun Arinze disclosed reasons for leaving the music scene. He made clear he didn’t quit music as speculated by people out of failure, but he opted for acting instead.
Segun studied Theatre Arts at Obafemi Awolowo University and had tried his hands on music, even releasing two albums. However, he later realized that his first love, acting, required more attention; thus, he faced the industry squarely. And that decision made him one of the most respected actors in Nollywood.
Segun has clarified that the love of music was never killed and might return someday. His comeback, however, would not be for earning extra bucks but just for the love and passion for singing and creating music.
His story teaches instinct and how one prioritizes on what really matters, but now, his fans await the time when Segun Arinze brings his music back to life, even if it’s just for its love.
