“I Did Shallow Songs To Satisfy Fans” - Lynxx


Nigerian rapper, Lynxx said in a late Interview with BBC Focus On Africa said he did songs in those days that had no profundity because that was what fans ached for the most and for the music industry

Read excerpts underneath:


"I was unfulfilled with what I was doing content wise, the market needed the same pool of subject which was money, alcohol and women. It gets exhausting particularly for some person like me that has a background of knowledge.
"It was as though i was limiting myself like I was giving just five percent of what i know to my audience. I chose to take a break to ensure I know why I am doing music and work on music that i personally believe in light of the fact that music is art and no one ought to let me know what to paint", he said.
Whenever asked as to whether his fans or the industry was responsible for not getting the creative space he wanted, Lynxxx said: "It's a bit of both in light of the fact that i experimented with songs that were out of the norm and those songs were not as received as the Shallow records.
"I believe that by then, that was what the listeners were looking to hear and right now, the industry is prepared for real music since they have played that for so long that it has worn itself out."
