singer is not the only one that has passed through this phase as Limpopo
singer, Kcee, admitted that at a point, despite making hit songs, he
quit music to sell furniture at Ikeja.
He said, “I saw Waje’s
video and I was touched. I was supposed to say something about it but I
was busy with my album project. However, I spoke to a few people about
it. The truth is that the industry is a fake one; I am not just talking
about the Nigerian music industry, but globally. Everybody is
struggling.
