UK-based Nigerian Juju music legend, Jide Chord, has shared moments from a recent family outing, using the opportunity to highlight the importance of work–life balance, especially for entertainers in the Juju and Fuji genres.
In a post on his verified social media page, the veteran musician noted that the demanding nature of live performances and long hours often keeps artists away from their families, particularly their children. He urged fellow musicians to prioritise family time despite their busy schedules.
“The intensity of Juju and Fuji music can disconnect you from your family. Especially your kids. Let’s manage our work–life balance,” he wrote.
The post was accompanied by photos of the musician spending time with his family, one showing him with his adult children at the iconic Beverly Hills landmark, and another capturing a relaxed hangout with younger relatives by a scenic waterfront.
Fans and followers praised the Juju star for promoting family values and speaking candidly about the pressures entertainers face.
Jide Chord, who has built an influential career spanning several decades across Nigeria and the UK, continues to inspire audiences not only through his music but also through his commitment to family and personal wellbeing.
