Fast-rising Nigerian singer, Charles Chibueze Chukwu has gone down memory lane as he recounts how he sat for the Joint Admission and Matriculation (JAMB) Examination five times.

Speaking on Channels TV’s Rubbin Minds, which was hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Crayon recounted his journey to the music industry.

According to the Mavin Records signee, he struggled to gain admission to a tertiary institution for years before delving into entertainment.

 

He said;

“It has been amazing and beautiful to see because I have been working over the years and now, I am now finally getting the recognition that I deserve.

“So, it (recognition) is beautiful to see – among my fans, team, and everybody that knows me personally.

“I started making music like 2016 officially. I wasn’t in school then but trying to get into the university. I wrote JAMB five times.”

 

Speaking further, he said that the challenges he had with gaining admission were not particularly due to his level of intelligence.

“For the first two times, I failed; the rest three times, I passed. I kept going to the school to lay complaints and ask: ‘What’s up?’ It (gaining admission) wasn’t just happening for me. I feel like it was God’s way of redirecting me.

“Even before I started making music, I used to be a footballer. I like football a lot – I used to play football, go to training, academies, and stuff like that,” he added
