My father’s legacy made me to study law, not pressure – Falz speaks (Video)
Popular Nigerian rapper and activist, Falz has spoken up on the reason he decided to study law amidst community rumor.
During an interview with popular journalist Chude Jideonwo, Falz decided to address the claims that he was forced to follow in his father’s path as a lawyer.
The rap artist recalls being inspired by his father, Femi Falana SAN, who had great influence on many individuals.
This path led Falz to study law, aiming to replicate his father’s impact.
However, after brief stints at the Ministry of Justice and his father’s firm, Falz’s passion for music took over.
He recounts, “As a child, I felt compelled to make a name for myself due to people’s high expectations.”
Falz adds, “Hearing stories of my dad’s helpfulness and dedication motivated me to emulate him, not due to pressure, but genuine aspiration.”
He notes, “I practiced law briefly, about two years, before pursuing music full-time in 2014.”
