The Nigerian music scene stopped to listen as 2Face Idibia, now known as 2baba, shared a rare look into his private character. The veteran artist spoke during a sit-down session with Voice of Nigeria to address long-held public views about his lifestyle.
The singer appeared calm as he tackled the most common gossip tied to his name for decades. He admitted that the public sees him as a man who moves from woman to woman. However, the songwriter was quick to correct this specific tag with a smile.
The Lover Boy Tag
2baba stated that the biggest misconception about him is that he is a womaniser. He told the host that people often get his intentions wrong because of his fame. The singer insisted that he is just a “lover boy” who falls for people deeply.
He noted that his feelings are always genuine when he enters a relationship. This claim comes after he recently asked fans to forgive him and his family during a moment of public reflection last year. He seems intent on clearing his name of old labels.
Honesty in Relationships
The music star referenced his own lyrics to explain how he handles his love life. He used the phrase “I like women, but I dey straightforward” to show his honest nature. He believes that being open about his feelings is often mistaken for something else.
This new stance follows a major shift in his public life after he declared an end to giving belle during a concert in Benin City. Fans see this latest interview as a sign of his growth. He wants the world to know he values real connection over his past reputation.
