Learn skills, have side jobs – Rapper Illbliss tells up-and-coming artists
Veteran Nigerian rapper Illbliss has urged aspiring musicians not to depend solely on their talents.
He advised them to learn a skill and have a side job to help them in times of financial difficulties.
He gave the advice while reacting to a viral clip from a recent interview of music executive Ayo Animashaun.
In the clip, Animashaun explained that despite reports that Nigerian artists are making huge fortunes from music, only a few them are in that category.
“A lot of artists are not making money. You say artists are making money — you can’t count ten,” he said.
Reacting via X, Illbliss wrote, “Dear Upcoming….
Little advise from IllBliss
Learn a skill or find a second and third hustle that will help you keep the lights on!”
