Why I’m still single in my 40s – Don Jazzy

Veteran music producer and Mavin Records boss, Don Jazzy, has opened up about the personal cost of his rise to the top of Nigeria’s entertainment industry.
Speaking on the Echo Podcast, the 42-year-old revealed that while he has no regrets about his career journey, one area of his life he may have unconsciously sacrificed is marriage.
When asked what he had to let go in pursuit of success, Don Jazzy admitted he never imagined reaching his 40s unmarried.
“I never thought I’d be in my 40s and not married. Maybe that’s the one I lost along the way. If it comes, it comes. If it doesn’t, I’m totally fine,” he said.
The hitmaker, who has played a key role in shaping the careers of stars like Tiwa Savage, Rema and Ayra Starr, added that his career would still revolve around music even if he was not a record label executive.
Despite the trade-offs, Don Jazzy stressed that he feels deeply fulfilled with what he has achieved in the music scene.
