Popular Nigerian rapper and singer, Modupe-Oreoluwa, commonly known by her stage name, Mo’ Cheddah, has revealed how she was mocked for dating her husband for 10 years before marriage.
The singer revealed this during a controversial podcast, called Tea with tay.
According to Mo’ Cheddah, she began dating her partner at the age of 17 when she was still trying to push her musical career.
The rapper said, “I started dating early, yeah and I started dating when I was (I think) 17 and do you know when I think about it, I tell him that what if I did music because I had to meet you because if I didn’t do music, I wouldn’t have met him”

According to the rapper, she was also called “Lord of the rings” because she dated her husband for over 10 years before they finally decided on marriage.
The artiste further asserted that having a private life with her husband made her happy and she also indicated that during her wedding, no phones should be allowed.
She said, “Do you know they used to call me lord of the rings because we played for so long? Do you know that was my nickname at one point; what didn’t they call me? You know when I went through the whole getting to know myself, I was happy in real life and that’s what it taught me because I had been so unhappy for so long that when I finally became happy, I just enjoyed being happy and I didn’t need to show people I was happy or I don’t need their validation,”
“He was the most amazing person, and you don’t need to know that; I’m not going to share that with you. I wanna keep it to myself and enjoy every moment; so, I just loved my private life and I never need to share it, so I got married. There were no phones at my wedding, nothing”
