Alleged dark secrets of the music industry exposed by upcoming musician
Many Nigerians have begun to expose secrets they claim to be privy to, about the music industry, following the death of Mohbad.
One of them is X user, @ustinangelo, who took to the social media platform to share his journey as an upcoming musician.
In his tweet he said,
“The music Industry is dark. Back in 2015 at mafoloku in Oshodi, after recording my first song, a group of guys took me to some Ogas (won’t mention names). They gave me the following conditions;
1. start smoking
2. Must be at night clubs 24/7
3. Join the brotherhood and serve for 6 months
4. Find one Alfa or Cele pastor to be working for me.
5. Be loyal to one gay Oga like that
6. Diss a popular artist regularly.”
He concluded by saying he refused to join, and instead tried to do it on his own but since nothing worked, he had to quit out of frustration.
Many Nigerians on the X platform have agreed with him, with some of them also contributing secrets many of them believe are present in the Nigerian scene, especially the music industry.

@Thattruthtella said: Must we sing circular songs? Tbt the music industry is dark & that means you’d have to be very familiar with the system (house) to be able to move in the dark. I ventured into rapping in 2008, lost some1 dear to me immediately I dropped my first single. Story 4 another day.
