I decided to open a new account to post this, as I am posting this am holding tears back because am inside a bus from Lagos back to my base in Ogun state.

The last thing I want in my life is to be a public figure because am a strong introvert and I hardly go out, I just want to be left alone.

Now during this festive period I travelled to my home state and on getting home, everyone was just talking about my old song and they were disturbing me to freestyle for them.

Deep down this started making me feel like am not following my purpose in life, I started having this feeling that on my dying bed I will live to regret that I didnt following my music career and thinking about the number of people my music could have put smile on their faces. I will never forgive myself, because what is life when you cant use your talent to be of service to humanity.

When I see younger artiste like Omah lay, Bella schmurda, etc I start feeling jealous and envious and the last thing I want is to be envious of another man's success.


Now even though everywhere was a lively mood and everywhere bubbling in the studio. On going home I started becoming depressed looking at the amount of money I spent on recording ( I really wanted the best so I decided to work with an expensive professional sound engineer that worked on Wizkid made in lagos album.

I can't tell anybody about what I did because I will be mocked at home for spending such an amount on my useless music career(as they will say at home). Tears is beginning to roll down my eyes as I write this but fortunately everywhere is dark.

I am panicking and feeling the song will be wack when it comes out and am a good for nothing person. I can't hold back tears in the bus.

Below is a picture of when I was invited by glo to come and perform but I bleeped it up because I was too shy to perform well in front of the crowd, Tuface, D'banj, don jazzy, Wizkid were all present

The reason why am writing this here is because nairaland is my only home. it's my only family. I love you all

Open a youtube channel, I'll be your first subscriber.

If you every put the song on apple, I'll be the first to buy.

I am your fan. Just dont drop the bar or you wont have a repeat customer.

You can still be an introverted artiste. What does think of Lagbaja and M.F Doom..... Both might also be introverts and they decided to use masks to create a separate persona while keeping their private lives private.

There's something else obviously eating you up and you need to deal with it first.

Why not use your music to voice it out so the burden is off your mind.

You nailed it.

You've never wanted to be a public figure but you've always envied the public figures? Then you did a track and went ahead to give it your all so that you'll "blow" and then you're afraid you may not eventually "blow". I don't understand. Sounds like stories from RuPaul contestants. But it's fine. Wish you the best of whatever it is you really want.

To a reasonable extent, I'd say I'm reserved. The last thing I wanted to do was become a singer but someone dragged me into the choir by chance and I have never looked by since then.

At some point, I flopped so hard I thought I would never do music again. But then i picked up myself and went on again.

Today, I'd say I am a blend of Mike Abdul and Sammie Okposo, charisma-wise. Strangely, when I talk or when I interact with people, one would never see this. Beyonce is reserved and shy as a human but is 'Sasha Fierce' on stage. Don't let your personality rub off on your talent so bad that it relegates you. If anything, it should be a plus to you.

Failure is part of learning. As a matter of fact, I celebrate my failures quite well because they only tell me I need to work more. Success doesn't do that because it is arrogant. The musicians you are envious of have all, at some point had it rough, flopped or thought about giving up. There is an underlying issue that is undefeated here. The sense of failure even when it is yet to arrive is troubling.

Just stay consistent and your needed breakthrough will come. So whether or not the song will flop isn't the problem. Learn how those you envy succeeded but focus more on talented people who never had a breakthrough in the music industry. There's a why.

All the best.

All I can say is I’m extremely proud of u. U took a bold step and that’s what Life and living is about. I want to wish u well in ur endeavor.

Remember whatever is worth doing is worth doing well. Don’t look for hypers look for critics especially if they can be constructive it’s a sure way to growth. Every artist was once shy and atleast had stage fright. Nothing new there.

Always pursue dreams. It takes work, courage, determination and constant learning.

Finally collaborate and hype the song if the passes the litmus test. Lol. Cheers grin

Sorry brother, no one has the time to push you, you must push yourself. Please don't hide your moniker, you could have opened a new user name with your stage name.

Take music as a hobby, expect nothing to come from it, just do your things and let things happen naturally. Make sure you spend little money on marketing your song. From your write up, it seems you are not confident in your self. You need to get a couch for that.

You are an introvert. Fine most superstars are. They only show the world another part of them which is not really. Now you don't go to stage for the first time with your eyes naked before the crowd. You need shade. I mean dark eyeglasses. Even tuface and the likes use it in most cases. But the amount you said you spend does not matter. What j am interested is in i hope you no borrow

Come and ask me na!

I have been negotiating with a foreign firm, standing my ground on certain amount (a very good rate). At some point the company HR was like, this guy that's asking for big money, let's see what stuff he's made of, and viola! I was scheduled for a video interview.
Seeing the faces of the panel made me lose balance (I still can't believe that happened over a video interview), I screwed up big time!
Though the panel perceived I knew the nitty-gritty of the job, but fed the HR back that I wasn't worth the money I was asking!
Na so the HR guy price me down by a whopping 25%!

I just humbly took it because the sh*tty exchange rate has taken care of the paycut. I'm still mad at myself that I goofed.

So my guy, sh*t happens and you've gotta move on!

Truly OP, no be only you suffer pass. Listen to this guy (Sundrus) and you have it all solved. Meanwhile, Passion is not enough. Learn the business side of music as well, and maximize it to avoid depression or begging in the nearest future. Meanwhile, change the artwork of the song to something inspiring for goodness sake. Also, exclude the naked or half-naked lady from your next artwork.
