Why I Think Love Is Overrated – Singer Oxlade

Nigerian singer Oxlade has opined that love is overrated.

He also shared his past experiences with love and heartbreak.

The star spoke during an appearance on The 90’s Baby Show.

When asked about the source of his heartbreak, Oxlade chose not to reveal his ex-girlfriend’s identity, citing concerns about negative publicity and potential backlash from online users.

He said:

“I feel like you don’t do evil for evil, that’s giving her bad PR. I can’t expose her, my community will. Trust me, there are stalkers that go crazy; they will find you. I promise you, it’s the internet”

When the singer was asked what transpired between the former lovebirds, and why he felt that love was overrated, he said:

“It’s not what she did to me, but what the community did to us. Back then, I didn’t even have the bread so it was all true love. Just true love and words of affirmation. There was this time when I was in her hostel and I heard her friends ask her, ‘Girl, what are you doing with Oxlade.

“I was at the door and when I entered, their demeanour changed. That thing broke me and from then on I saw the patterns change until I saw her with the same guy she said she wasn’t seeing.

“This was at a very early stage in my life, during my hustle era. That was the moment I learned that love is sweet o, but it’s not everywhere. You can’t find true love everywhere and you must be lucky, God wants you to see love before you can find it”.
