How I Was Advised To Join Cult and Perform Ritual To ‘Blow’ My Music Career– Phyno

Popular rapper Chibuzor Nelson Azubuike, well known by his stage as Phyno, has said that when he was a struggling musician, people told him that if he wanted instant recognition and success in his music career, he should join a cult or partake in rituals.

When advising upcoming artists on shortcuts to success, Phyno made this clear.

He never believed in shortcuts since he believed that hard work, perseverance, and resilience were the essential qualities that might make him successful.

The rapper counseled upcoming artists to temper their desire for instant success and to be cautious before signing with just any record company out of desperation without carefully reading and taking into account the contract’s stipulations.

He noted, “Some people look at us today and think we got it easy, Not at all.

“I’ve never loved easy things. Before many people heard of Phyno, I’d had songs that no one knew existed.

 “A couple of friends told me to blow, I must join a cult or sacrifice something or someone, I told them the price is too much. I’ll never do such.

“I believed in myself and the power of hard work, I started little and today I thank God.

Speaking further, Phyno advised young talents against desperacy, but to imbibe the spirit of hard work and patience.

“Young talents need to relax, do not be desperate about record deals or being in the spotlight. Keep working, when it’s time you’ll shine.

“Imagine begging a label to sign you, what kind of terms will they give you? They already know you are desperate and they will use you.

“At the beginning, you might not see it but give it time, you’ll regret it. Nothing pays more than hard work and consistency”, he added.
