CDQ speaks on life before music breakthrough

Nigerian street rapper CDQ has recounted his life  and career before venturing into music.

In an interview with The Echo Room, the singer revealed that he was working as a banker to fulfil his late father’s wish.

He stated that he quit the job because he could not find fulfillment in the job.

CDQ also revealed that his friend and music producer Masterkraft used to borrow him suits to wear to work and accommodate him.

“I quit my bank job. I couldn’t tell my mother or any family member then. I left the house and went to stay with Masterkraft in the studio. I told him banking isn’t my passion. I will probably just do it to make ends meet. But music is something that whether it gives me a return-back or not, I’m still happy doing it,” he recalled.

CDQ also recalled that Masterkraft advised him to concentrate on music for six months. He stated that he took the advice and his musical breakthrough came in less than six months.
