I Was Burnt Out, Depressed And Broke - Eva Alordiah On Why She Took A Break From Music

Nigerian rapper, Eva Alordiah has opened up on why she took a break from music.

She spoke via her social media page.

 

She revealed that she stepped back from a seemingly successful music career and took a long hiatus because she was ‘burnt, broke and depressed’.

 

She wrote: 

 

‘’A few years ago I walked away from a seemingly “successful” music career.

I was burnt out.

Depression had taken an almost permanent seat beside me.

My bank balance was just enough to buy my next meal.

If there was a picture of the phrase “Starving Artist”, it would have been my damn face.

One day, I said “Fuck it! I got myself here, I’m gonna get myself out.”

I invested the next 3 years in relentless self development:

- building my body

- reading ferociously

- taking care of my mind

- investing in online courses

- learning how to make money

- building multiple online businesses

I look back and I swear I wouldn’t change a thing!

Taking responsibility for my shit helped me get my life back.

Today my life is so much better because I was bold enough to say- “Na me fuck up!”
