2baba clears the air: Singer denies being a womaniser

​Story Highlights

2baba, formerly 2Face Idibia, addressed his public reputation during an interview with Voice of Nigeria on February 12, 2026. The music veteran rejected claims that he is a “womaniser,” insisting that he is simply a “lover boy.” He further explained his straightforward approach to honest and open relationships.

​The Nigerian music scene stopped to listen as 2Face Idibia, now known as 2baba, shared a rare look into his private character. The veteran artist spoke during a sit-down session with Voice of Nigeria to address long-held public views about his lifestyle.

​The singer appeared calm as he tackled the most common gossip tied to his name for decades. He admitted that the public sees him as a man who moves from woman to woman. However, the songwriter was quick to correct this specific tag with a smile.

​The Lover Boy Tag

​2baba stated that the biggest misconception about him is that he is a womaniser. He told the host that people often get his intentions wrong because of his fame. The singer insisted that he is just a “lover boy” who falls for people deeply.

​He noted that his feelings are always genuine when he enters a relationship. This claim comes after he recently asked fans to forgive him and his family during a moment of public reflection last year. He seems intent on clearing his name of old labels.

​Honesty in Relationships

​The music star referenced his own lyrics to explain how he handles his love life. He used the phrase “I like women, but I dey straightforward” to show his honest nature. He believes that being open about his feelings is often mistaken for something else.

​This new stance follows a major shift in his public life after he declared an end to giving belle during a concert in Benin City. Fans see this latest interview as a sign of his growth. He wants the world to know he values real connection over his past reputation.

2Face settles debate: Music legend rates Burna Boy ahead of Wizkid and Davido

​Story Highlights

Nigerian music legend 2Face Idibia has declared Burna Boy the leading artist in Africa and the world right now. Speaking on the Mic On Podcast, 2Baba emphasized that his choice relies on pure artistry and musical consistency rather than financial status or fanbase size.

​The debate over who leads the Nigerian music industry often sparks intense arguments among fans. Music icon 2Face Idibia has now weighed in on the matter, offering his expert view on the “Big Three.”

​Speaking in an interview aired on February 7, 2026, 2Face placed Burna Boy above his peers. He told host Seun Okinbaloye that the “Last Last” crooner currently sits at the top of the chain.

​Artistry over bank accounts

​2Face made it clear that he respects everyone in the industry. However, he singled out Burna Boy for his unique approach to music making.

​The legend explained that his judgment focuses strictly on talent. He dismissed metrics like wealth, noting that he does not know their bank account details.

​”From what I can measure from common sense and understanding of music, Burna is on top,” 2Face stated. This focus on skill echoes conversations from last year, recalling when VeryDarkMan ranked Naira Marley’s peak higher than the current giants.

​He added that Burna Boy dominates not just in Nigeria, but globally. 2Face described the singer’s growth as constant and unpredictable, like a painter creating new art daily.

​A different kind of focus

​The “African Queen” singer believes every artist is a major player in their own field. He noted that different people have different musical tastes.

​Yet, he insisted that Burna Boy stands out when looking at the general aspect of artistry. “If an artist does this painting now, the next one he will paint will be different,” he argued.

​Comparisons like this often fuel fan wars, a tension that Ubi Franklin claims prevents a collaboration between the three superstars. Despite this, 2Face maintains that his choice is simply about who runs the game right now.

​He concluded that while styles differ, Burna Boy’s current form remains unmatched worldwide.
