How my passion for music made me quit banking – ID Cabasa

Cabasa, has recounted how he left the banking sector to pursue music fully. 

He said he took the decision because music has always been his passion.

Speaking in a recent episode of the Debbie Show TV, Cabasa said he studied medicine for two years before dropping out to study economics.

He said: “I did medicine for two years, then went to study economics. After my masters, I worked with two Nigerian banks and then I went into music.

“My parents wanted me to be a doctor. When I got admission to study medicine, I knew I was not going to do that. So I wrote another JAMB and was admitted into Lagos State University to study economics. I couldn’t study music then because it wasn’t seen as a career, unlike now. Initially, I was doing music just for the passion.

“Despite studying economics, I always knew I would do music. Not just music. If I tell people that music was not the first thing that I did in art, they won’t believe me. It was acting.”
