Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Ghanaian rapper Teephlow urges fellow musicians to explore diverse income streams for a better quality of life.
He thinks that if artists focus too much on others’ opinions, they will have a difficult time achieving success in their art.
The rapper, whose real name is Lukeman Ekow Baidoo, stated this during a live video on social media.
He mentioned that Ghanaians frequently support artists staying within familiar territory, even though they are not ready to financially support their careers.
“They will tell you to stay in your comfort zone, but these people are not ready to invest in your career. How can a man who has gone to KNUST and has a degree in quantity surveying limit himself to music? They paid my school fees so that if my talent fails, I can fall on something else. So why should I limit myself? Don’t listen to Ghanaians because they will not invest in you. You can do music even when you’re outside the country. Do not let anyone limit you,” he said.
He continued by saying, “You have a family and you have bills to pay, so if your passion is not making the cut, try to put things in place to sort out your bills. Then, if the bills are sorted, you can focus on your passion. With this in place, you don’t have to think about how you can invest in your passion without any form of stress,” he said.
