Don Jazzy Explains Why He Follows All the Baddies, He's Secretly Looking for Wife Number 2.

Don Jazzy Explains Why He Follows All the Baddies, He's Secretly Looking for Wife Number 2.


In other news, Don Jazzy has finally addressed the question that has kept the internet busy for years, and his answer was as cheeky as expected.



The Mavin Records boss recently responded to an X user who asked, "Lol don jazzy why you dey follow all the baddie for Instagram". Without missing a beat, he replied, "Cos I be ashewo". The admission, a Nigerian slang term for someone who enjoys a vibrant and social lifestyle, sparked immediate reactions, with many praising his honesty.


(yimu like Crayon)



Beyond the humor, however, Don Jazzy has maintained that his social media activity is far more strategic than it appears. He revealed that what is often joked about as a casual habit of following "Gen Z baddies" is actually a deliberate part of his talent discovery process. "People always say I follow plenty Gen Z baddies on IG, but that's actually how I discovered Ayra Starr," he said.


 (shakes head like Tiwa Savage, watching a man turn his Instagram feed into a scouting report)


But here is what the blogs did not tell you.



The real reason Don Jazzy follows all the baddies is not about talent scouting or being an "ashewo." It is because he is actively looking for a wife, and his spec is actually a "baddie." He has been studying Instagram baddies for years, carefully analyzing their personalities, lifestyles, and values to find the one who ticks all his boxes. He is not scrolling for fun or content. He is scrolling for love. 


Edgar doesn't lie.
