I took time off music to take care of my baby - D'Prince

Mavin act, D'Prince, has opened up on his relationship with his baby mama and his marriage plans.


On marriage plans, he said:
I definitely have plans to get married to the mother of my child and as we speak, we are dating; we are in a relationship. I cannot say when I would get married because it is private information. The day I get married, no one would know. The reason why I am famous is because of my music and not my relationship life or family, so I want that to be my focus. What if my partner does not want to be in the limelight? I have to respect that. I don’t expose my private life,” D’Prince said,

He continued saying his time away from the music scene was taken to cater to his baby who is almost 2-years.

“I would not say that I disappeared from the entertainment scene. I have been up and about and beside, I have a baby and I had to travel to set up my house in America. I was also recording album and even though this is my second album, it feels like my first. To be frank, I actually needed a quiet time to work on my music because a lot has been happening in the industry. Also, scarcity also increases the demand for a commodity.

“Fatherhood has been awesome. Being a father has actually changed my life and because I have a child, I can say I am in a better place now. I wish this feeling of peace, settlement and vision for everyone. A lot of test and challenges have come my way but being able to overcome them has really made me fulfilled. Initially when my child was born, I was in shock because I did not believe that I had become a father. But apart from that, there was nothing scary. When I knew I was having a baby, I was scared because I did not know what the future would hold.”

On leaving Mavin:

 “I am not leaving Mavin Records for anything because this is what we built from the outset. We evolved from Mo’hits to Mavin Records. Even though it is my brother’s record label, I cannot act in a nonchalant manner. If you really know me, I am the one that creates the rules here so I cannot break them. Anyone that chooses to disobey the rule would face the consequences but I plan on following my pace; I put a lot into consideration before recording my music.

“I don’t think anyone should compare me with the likes of Reekado Banks, Di’ja and Korede Bello because we are in the same stable. Anybody that brings that up is not considering the fact that we are in the same family. We have our ethics, we work like a family,” he said.
