Oxlade Biography
Oxlade was born on April 22, 1997, in Lagos State, Nigeria. He had both his primary and secondary education in his hometown.
The name of the schools where he had his basic education are yet to be known but we promise to get this post updated as soon as we do.
After completing his secondary education, Oxlade proceeded and attended the popular and well-known Lagos State University (LASU).
He studied at the History and International Relations Department, but unfortunately, the “O2” cronner dropped out of school just a few years after he enrolled.
Oxlade Career
Oxlade’s music career can be traced back to his days back in secondary school.
Even though one of his parents (father) was against the fact that he has chosen to set up a career in the music profession, that still wasn’t big enough to stop Oxlade.
The young talent kept pushing it through until he finally left home for the university.
This was when he was able to fully concentrate on his career.
Then, he was able to make major decisions in his life without the interruption of his parents.
Life in the university was what exposed Oxlade to the huge potentials his music career possessed in his life.
Oxlade happened to be a part of his church choir team when he was still young, and this he said has helped in preparing him for his music.
Also at the church, he has met one of the popular and creative video producers, Naya Effects (who now produce almost all his videos).
A few years after entering the university, Oxlade decided to quit school. The reason behind that is unknown but we believe it’s because of his music career.
This was also when his father decided to stop catering for all his needs and life got so hard.
Oxlade almost quit music and at the peak of quitting, he met Blaqbonez who did a musical collaboration with him.
A while later, he received a message from the award-winning artist, Davido, who told him he has listened to some of his songs and found them so nice and that he should continue pushing.
This was a very big encouragement which came through to Oxlade just when he needed it.
That was how he got spotted and his music started spreading like fire.
Oxlade released his EP, Oxygene, with the lead single O2 and this he said was inspired by his break up from the then Oxlade girlfriend.
Oxlade Net Worth
As of 2021, Oxlade’s net worth is estimated to be $100,000, which he made off his career as a singer and songwriter.
