A post on Facebook featuring a young and upcoming artist who shared in an interview that he regrets collecting money from Burna Boy when they met, saying he should have asked for a verse instead, sparked various reactions. However, one insensitive comment from Michael Adebanjo read, “na mumu like you Odogwu go collab with,” undermining the artist’s reflection. This type of negative remark adds unnecessary hostility to a young artist’s journey, dismissing his aspirations and self-awareness.
Rather than tearing down someone trying to learn from their experience, comments like these can discourage potential growth. The artist’s decision to reflect on his choices is a sign of maturity, and seeking mentorship or collaboration is a natural part of growth in the music industry. Constructive support, not negativity, is what helps rising talents reach their full potential.
