Speaking with The Punch, Osupa disclosed that he not only ditched the joboffer but also a $100K pay with a house just to pursue his music career.

"I went for the exams and they were highly impressed," he began. "So, they said they would put me in the nuclear section and they gave me $100,000."

Continuing, Osupa said, 'They also offered me a house with a zero down payment. The offer was so likeable but I had a re-think about it and decided it was not what I wanted. I wasn’t sure I wouldn’t regret the decision in the future.

'I left Chicago and went to New York and eventually I came back home to do my music. I do not regret the decision today,' he said.
