Seyi Vibez reveals actual age amidst doubt of being 23
Up-and-coming artist Seyi Balogun, widely recognized as Seyi Vibez, delves into the reason behind the widespread perception that he appears older than his actual age.
In a conversation with Nandi Madida on Apple Music’s Africa Now Radio, Seyi Vibez not only disclosed his age—23—but also addressed the prevailing belief about his maturity.
The singer, known for hits like “Billion Van,” acknowledged that the misconception stems from the mature themes present in his performances, which may seem at odds with his youthful years.
“I don’t think I am young. Everyone thinks I’m older than my age; nobody thinks I am actually 23. I just have to keep pushing because it seems I am doing what I am not supposed to do at my age. I will keep working, so my inspiration never dies,” he asserted.
He shared that he is consistently in the studio, actively crafting new songs, with several more ready for release.
“I just keep recording. It is not because I want to record, it is because I don’t like talking to people too much. From when I was young, I did not like talking to people too much.
Whatever is on my mind that is getting me sad or happy, I put it in my music. I record always because that is the only way I can communicate with people. I have a lot more songs than the ones I have released,” he added.
