According to the musician who began his career as a producer in 2003, many successful musicians have put off or stopped their schooling to concentrate on their music.

“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,” he said.

“Sometimes, some people get to a certain fame level and rush back to school and come back to continue from where they stopped because you have to actually face one. Music is tasking, it takes all your time.”
