Politics Has Eaten Up Our Music Industry !! Burna Boy

Burna Boy who might not have been lucky in the Nigerian Music Industry in terms of getting award but he sure is the man after some ladies heart, opened up in a chat with Fader Magazine why has not giving any award in the industry. He revealed that politics has eaten up the industry and he feels like he isn’t part of them as they don’t truly reward good work. He said;

“It’s political, man. To be honest, I don’t really feel like I’m a part of the industry. Check out awards, I don’t get awards because the powers that be don’t really like me. I’m not like everyone else; I won’t do what everyone else does. They don’t like it.Everything is really political, too much politics in the industry and I’m not a very good politician.

So I don’t really involve myself in all that. I just drop hit songs, and my fan base keeps increasing. 

“If I was a part of the industry then I wouldn’t have shit today. Think about it. It would just be one of the songs you hear in the club and then that’s it.“But right now, you see, I don’t have the most Twitter followers or the most Instagram numbers or whatever, but the things that I do the people with one million followers can’t do it,”
