Why I Urgently Dumped Music For Education – Korede Bello

Nigerian singer, Korede Bello has revealed why he dumped music for Mass Communication at the peak of his career.

Korede Bello who was signed to Mavin Records and was doing very well with many hit singles to his name, left the music scene in a rush, when he declared he had enrolled to be a Mass Communication student.

Speaking in an interview with the New Telegraph, Mr Bello revealed why what he did was all that mattered to him at the moment he did it.

He said; “I love education, not so much traditional education, but I love to learn how the world works and how the human mind operates. So getting a degree in Mass Communication seemed congruent with my profession”.

Speaking further, he said: “Writing a headline is similar to writing a chorus. They both have to be catchy and evoke some emotional reaction. Music and news are both languages of emotional connection. So, it is a good thing to be educated on your passion. I have observed that you can be the most famous or richest person on earth and still be unhappy or unsatisfied on the inside.”
