Nigerian rapper 6uff has shared a shocking story about his family’s rise and sudden collapse, revealing that life was far from easy despite how things may look now.
Speaking on the Off the Record podcast, the rapper recounted how his father built a massive fortune in the oil business. “My dad was a wealthy oil mogul and one of the biggest suppliers of STP in Nigeria, with a network worth ₦3 billion,” he said.
However, things took a drastic turn after his father’s d+ath. According to him, his mother struggled to keep the business afloat. “When he died, my mom couldn’t handle the business, it was too much for her and gradually it was slipping away and we lost everything and had to sell all the properties.”
The situation became so difficult that basic survival became a challenge. “There was a point that we weren’t eating up to 2 square meals in a day. I was even taking credits at some point to the extent that there was a time I couldn’t go out because I had taken credits everywhere.”
6uff added that many people find his story hard to believe because of how he appears today. “People won’t believe when I say that because they just see me and feel everything has been smooth.”
