Celebrated Nigerian singing sensation, MC Galaxy and fashionista,
Laura Ikeji, who is also the sister of popular blogger Linda, had always
been close. It will be recalled that at a point, the singer even gifted
Laura N1m and this made many people raise an eyebrow.
Many opined that the two were an item till the fashionista shocked
many as she got married to her long-time boyfriend, Ogbonna Kanu,
younger brother to the legendary footballer, Nwankwo Kanu.
When asked why the pop singer did not marry the lady he terms as his best friend, he simply said, “Laura
had always had a boyfriend for a very long time and I knew but other
people did not know about it. Probably if she did not have anyone in her
life, I would have asked her out because we really connected and we
were best of friends. She is someone I talk to every time and now that
she is married, it has not affected our relationship in anyway. Her
husband loves me a lot and he attended my album listening party. He came
all the way from London to attend my listening party.”
He added that there was never a time they dated because he saw her as his sister, “There
was nothing between Laura Ikeji and I. She is not just my best friend
but I refer to her as my sister because she knows about everything that I
want to do. If I listen to her advice, everything works out fine and I
consult her before I sign some artistes. If she tells me not to do so, I
listen to her because she is very intelligent. If she talks to you and
you listen, you would make it. The reason my brand is big today is
because of Laura. I was not used to granting interviews but she advised
me that I need it. I am just lucky and blessed. As a smart guy, if you
have such a person as a friend, you have to keep them as friends because
the moment you mess it up, things might go sour,” he said.
He told Saturday Beats that even though there has been pressure
from his mother to settle down, he is still single and waiting for the
right time.
“I am currently single and I don’t know when I would get
married. God can decide and say I will get married tomorrow, who knows?
Marriage is not something you rush, just be sure of the person you want
to spend the rest of your life with. My mother tries to pressurise me
into marriage but I know how I calm her down. I would want my wife to be
God-fearing and good looking because I have worked hard to the stage
that I deserve a good looking woman,” the singer said.
MC Galaxy is currently promoting his latest work, ‘MMM- Money
Making Machine’ and he hinted Saturday Beats on how he got the
inspiration for his album name.
“The message I am trying to pass with my new album, ‘Money
Making Machine,’ is that everyone should work hard and be patient.
Prayer is the key and with all these, success is guaranteed. You also
have to work smart. I have both inspirational and dance songs in the
album. I also have love songs, it is a complete album. I intentionally
explored all kinds of music for my fans; I owed them something
extraordinary. I actually got the inspiration for the title of the album
from the Ponzi scheme, MMM, which I was a victim. I know that with the
album, I would recoup the money I lost,” he said.
