Whitemoney, the victor of Big Brother Naija Season 6, has ventured into the music industry but revealed in a recent interview with BBC Igbo that his musical endeavors have yet to yield substantial financial rewards.<\/p>\n
During the interview, Whitemoney provided insight into his music career, expressing disappointment in the limited financial gains from music streaming. Despite acknowledging that his vocal style may not conform to traditional standards of ‘fine’ singing, Whitemoney underscored his commitment to delivering meaningful content.<\/p>\n
He candidly admitted, “The truth is singing has not started paying me because I don\u2019t get money from streaming, but I get money from performances. I don\u2019t have the best voice but I have a message and melody.”<\/p>\n
In the face of criticism, including evaluations from hired professionals, Whitemoney remains steadfast in his artistic journey. He clarified that his goal extends beyond pleasing listeners; rather, he aims to convey a message through his distinctive combination of meaningful content and melody. Dismissing external opinions, he asserted, “What you need to know is that I don\u2019t sing to make you feel fine because you don\u2019t feed or fund my musical career.”<\/p>\n
Whitemoney’s resilience in the pursuit of his artistic vision reflects a determination to stay true to his unique style, prioritizing substance over conforming to conventional norms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
