Stanley Omah Didia, better known as Omah Lay, an award-winning Afropop artist, has stated that he considered suicide during his depression.
During a conversation with H Steph, the ‘Soso’ singer spoke up on his mental health challenges and how he integrates his fight with depression into his music.
Omah Lay stated that going through depression was divine since it allowed him to help individuals who are now depressed.
The 25-year-old also stated that he will continue to create authentic songs based on his experiences.
He said; “I was at the verge of…I was suicidal, mahn. Trust me, I was really fcked up. But I think I have to be there to actually help the people who are there right now to get out of that place.
I mean it will take a real person like me to go there and then make music out of it and talk about it so openly how I’m a mess, how I think and how I’m fcked up and everything.
“I’m not sure you will find afrobeats artists who do that right now. Everybody is out there saying afrobeats are not so deep, ‘afrobeats are just vibes and sh*t’. Nah. That’s why everybody is just doing hype. The real music is dying.”
