Resemblance To 2Baba Affected My Career – Joe El

Joe El said being compared to 2Baba because of their resemblance has negatively affected his career.

 
Singer, Joe El Amadi has revealed how his resemblance to colleague, 2Baba affected his career.
 
According to him, being compared to 2Baba because of their resemblance negatively affected his career.
 
He said some music executives and media personalities had denied him access to their platforms just for sharing a resemblance with 2Baba.

“The downsides of 2Baba comparisons almost broke me down. Some presenters at Cool FM and Sound City, and an event planner at Festac Carnival 2013, denied me access to their platforms for looking like 2Baba,” he claimed.

“The Sound City presenter even confronted me at Club Rumours one time boasting that he was the one that ordered presenters at his station not to play my songs because I was mimicking 2Face.

“The event planner at Festac Carnival insisted that I won’t perform because I look like their King 2Face. The same thing happened when I went for an interview at Cool FM; the presenter said he can’t interview someone who imitates 2Face.

“I complained to my mum and my record label boss, Baba Keke but they urged to be calm. Sometimes, when I try to pay homage to 2Face when we meet in public, some of his team members will block me.”
 
He said people started accepting him after he collaborated with 2Baba on his song ‘Hold On’ in 2015.
 
On why he left Kennis Music after 12 years, Joe El said, “The contract was over.”
