"THE SADD€ST MOMENT IN MY CAREER WAS GETTING IGN0RED BY MIKEL OBI IN A U.K MALL"
-2Baba narrates why he sang "Only Me"
"At a time when everyone was making sure that all hands were on deck to move the Nigerian brand into the world stage, destiny brought me into the winning stage with my brother Mikel Obi, who was also winning from the football angle.
At that time, he was at the centre of argum€nt for two great clubs Manchester United and Chelsea, he was getting all the love from football lovers and I was getting all the love from musical lovers for putting Afrobeats on the world map at that time.
We were two kings coexisting in our different worlds, doing our thing and just living.
Somehow, I found Mikel in a shopping mall in U.K when I visited a buy things for myself and Annie, you know the superstar lifestyle.
I spotted my brother Mikel, walked up to him with open arms to embrace him because it's the first time I am crossing parts with him even if I have seen all his doings on T.V.
To my greatest surprise, Mikel just ignor€d and acted like he doesn't know 2Baba.
I was very s@d and tried to understand why he treated me that way, I tried to ask if I have ever said anything wr0ng about him, he nev€r apologiz€d about it even when Linda Ikeji and some popular blogs told the world how I was ignor€d by Mikel.
I went into the studio to pour out my heart in the song "ONLY ME"
I know say no be everybody Sabi play ball, but arise o compatriots if Nigeria call"
