Singer Babalola Oluwagbemiga Gabriel popularly known as Bigiano has shared the biggest regret of his career.

He said it was turning down an offer to join Mo’Hits Records, co-founded by Don Jazzy.

Speaking in an interview on Cool FM, the ‘Shayo’ hit maker said the opportunity arose in 2010 when D’banj introduced him to Don Jazzy and Sunday Are at the Mo’Hits mansion.

Bigiano said he declined the offer, feeling confident in his independence and initial success.

In retrospect, Bigiano believed accepting the offer would have significantly boosted his career.

Mo’Hits Records was a powerhouse in the music industry, with a roster of successful artists and collaborations with international acts.

Bigiano said: “This is going to make me teary, but I dare not. When ‘Shayo’ was at its prime, my friend D’banj introduced me and handed me over to Sunday Are. That should be 2010.

“They invited me to Mo’Hits mansion, Bankuli took me there. When we go there, D’banj, Don Jazzy, and Sunday Are were all around. I think Wande Coal was also around. And then Don Jazzy asked me, ‘Do you want to join Mo’Hits?’ Instead of me saying’yes,’ the little mind that feels he has arrived as an independent artist with hit songs said ‘No.’

“If I had accepted the offer, that would have been a big turnaround for my career because the Mo’Hits crew were very supportive. I regretted the decision.”
