As part of his recent interview with MTV Base Africa, the artist opened his heart by sharing an embarrassing anecdote that occurred early in his career. This delicate episode took place when he was a young music producer at the famous YBNL label.
While he remembers this situation with a certain dose of humility, the artist confides that this experience was one of the most embarrassing of his life. When he started with the YBNL, he remembers being little known and therefore little recognized by his peers. During a shoot, where everyone had to address the camera by giving a “shoutout” to the members of their crew, their turn arrived. Unfortunately, when it was time to speak, one of the officials was not very receptive to his presence. “Get out of here, get out of here,” someone said to him, plunging the artist into deep embarrassment.
This unexpected reaction deeply marked the artist, who felt a strong humiliation at that precise moment. The image of a young talent pushed aside in front of his peers left indelible marks in his memory. For him, it was a moment of great vulnerability where he would have preferred to disappear underground rather than face this delicate situation.
However, with hindsight, the artist now sees this episode as a formative stage in his journey. He was able to transform this humiliation into strength and determination, thus building a resilient shell in the face of obstacles. This anecdote, now placed in the past, testifies to the resilience of this talented artist who was able to transcend the challenges to become the emblematic figure that he is today.
Ultimately, this moment of embarrassment and humiliation helped shape the artist’s character, strengthening his determination to succeed despite the difficulties encountered along his path. A life lesson that reveals that even the most embarrassing moments can be transformed into a source of motivation and resilience.
