Singer, Abiola Ahmed Akinbiyi, popularly known as Bella Shmurda, has said it was not easy combining studies with music.

Speaking with media personality, Chude Jideonwo on the recent episode of #WithChude, the 'Vision 2020' singer said: '400L was hard o! I had to like attend a few classes.

'Even when I was doing exams, I had like seven papers; I did like four or five.

'Even the four or five, I rushed them because I had shows, studio sessions, wanted to go record with this one….

'But fair enough, people are good to me. My lecturers were good to me, my classmates then, they were good to me.'

Interrupting the singer briefly, Chude asked; 'Let's assume out of the five papers you did, one of the major ones, it was either that exam or a concert with Burna Boy, which one would you have chosen?'

'I'll go to the concert', replied Bella Shmurda.
