“Why most reality TV show winners don’t thrive in music industry” – Iyanya

Popular Afropop singer and songwriter, Iyanya speaks on why most reality stars don’t thrive after winning.

The “Tonight” singer who had won the ‘Project Fame West Africa Season 1’ said that most of the reality personalities do not intend to go on to be famous after winning the competition.

Those who eventually thrive are usually, according to him, the ones who went to the platform with the intention of becoming famous and relevant.

He said:

“Obviously, most people who win these reality shows don’t have any plans of being famous or anything. It just happened to them. Yeah, he has a nice voice, tried it and he won.

“So, I believe that the people who go further are the people who prayed for that platform. And they finally got it and they are like, ‘I’m not going back from here.’ That is how I look at it.”
