BBNaija Winner White Money Blames Nigerian For Not Understanding His Brand Of Music, Stating He Would Do Much Better Abroad.

Nigerian Reality TV Star White Money has disclosed the reason he thinks his music isn’t performing well in Nigeria, which is because Nigerians don’t understand the type of music he creates.
The winner of Big Brother Naija ‘2021 ‘Shine Ya Eye’ has attributed the poor performance of his music in Nigeria, his home country to Nigerians, stating that he would be better received abroad.

He stated various reasons he felt this way, one being that Nigerians could not appreciate his music as it spoke to his experiences and did not contain vulgar lyrics. His music was more ‘conscious‘ and uplifting, not using lyrics that could send his listeners into depression.
He also claimed that because he was more known for his cooking in the show, he was boxed in and hasn’t been allowed to explore his other talents. He continued to say that while it was true that cooking was his passion and he was good at it, music was where his true talents lay and would like to be recognized more for that instead.

In his words;
“Music has always been in me, and I have been doing it for a long time. I do it passionately, and my inspiration comes from the Holy Spirit and the environment. I tell stories from what I see and what I’ve been through. I make ‘conscious’ music.
I have a conscience. My songs don’t contain vulgar words or demeaning lyrics. I don’t talk down on anybody, or use lyrics that can send people into depression. All my lyrics are quite catchy and understandable. When I listen to my songs and I confirm that I am not doing the wrong thing, I get encouraged to continue.
I know that some Nigerians already see me in a certain way, so they would not want me to do my thing. They want me to stick cooking, because of my affinity with the kitchen while in the BBN house. But, I already have that going on. Cooking is a passion, but music is my talent; and I have proved in many ways.
Currently, I think my brand has more prospects outside Nigeria than in the country. Nigerians don’t understand me. They don’t know what I’m about. So, I want to take my brand international with my cooking, music and everything else that I do.”
