Rapper says he nearly gave up on music

Omar Sterling has said after completing Senior High School, he had no hopes of being in the entertainment industry.

According to the "Bob Marley" hitmaker, after completing Senior High School, he had no hopes of being in the entertainment industry.

Narrating how his elder brother encouraged him to hustle on the street since there was no money to continue his tertiary education, he told Dr Duncan on Adom FM that “My mentor died and I was so heartbroken. I stopped rapping. At the same time, my big bro told me I had to start hustling so I became a street boy. I started music without money on my mind…”

But Omar Sterling said he nearly quit music when people could not relate with his kind of rap.

"I use to have backlash before Omar sterling became Paedae. People didn’t understand my kind of music. You don’t get to hear that kind of rap. When I started people didn’t know what I was talking about. I rap about real life story…” he stressed.

He added that Dr Duncan played a vital role in his career.

"It’s not just R2bees but even Sarkodie we own our careers to Dr Duncan. I really use to have backlash. Duncan saw me when I started to rap but told me never to back down…” he added.
