Joeboy left fans in stitches after sharing a now-viral recording of his mother teasing him about marriage, despite his chart-topping success.

Nigerian singer Joseph Akinwale Akinfenwa, also known as Joeboy, has sparked reactions on social media after revealing a WhatsApp message from his mother. The hitmaker posted a screen recording of a voice note he received from his mum on his official X page on Tuesday, September 30. In an earlier post, just minutes before unveiling the chat, he had teased: “Can’t believe what I woke up to this morning.”

He then quoted his post with a screen recording of the exchange, accompanied by a dramatic caption that read: “Help! I’m in danger,” followed by a crying emoji.

In the audio clip, his mother showed pride and playfully stressed urgency. She said:
“All this your music, blowing up everywhere, enjoyment. Let me tell you, you have blown – no doubt about that. But when will you now blow into marriage? Your mates are doing weddings everywhere. What are you doing? I have told all my friends my son will get married soon.”
