Recently, a Nigerian DJ came out to recall an encounter he had with Mohbad before his sad death.
He remembered heading out to accompany the artist and being taken aback by Mohbad’s decision to cover his face.
In an attempt to reassure the young artist, the DJ joked, “We no dey do like that for this side o, feel free.”
“When we played his songs and he was on stage, he was behind everyone on stage, i was confused. brother come forward, you gotta hype the track, let them see vou”
Looking back after this whole situation has unraveled, the guy was really living in fear. I feel terrible that we didn’t read the signs that were right in front of us.
Mohbad’s legacy is a STRONG one. His light will FOREVER shine. REST IN POWER KING. Because of you, the oppressed can SPEAK UP.
A major reason creatives decide to express their passion through their craft, is to be able to live FREE We can’t be in this same entertainment industry where oppression thrives. BEGIN TO SPEAK UP.
BEGIN TO SPEAK UP TODAY!
All that middle man shit, god father here and there but aint shit and can’t bring shit to the table should END ASAP!!! Call out their bullshit and SAY NO TO BULLYING.
