Whitemoney, the winner of BBNaija Season 6, surprised fans and critics alike with his insights into his music career in a recent interview with BBC Igbo.
The reality star and self-proclaimed singer revealed that, for the time being, music streaming has not proven to be a profitable avenue for him.
Whitemoney expressed his commitment to conveying a profound message through his songs, emphasizing that while he may not have a ‘fine’ voice, his focus is on delivering meaningful content rather than conforming to conventional standards.
“The truth is singing has not started paying me; I do not get money from streaming, but I get money from performances. I do not have the best voice but I have a message and melody,” he said during the interview.
The reality star turned musician acknowledged the criticism he receives, including from those hired to evaluate his work.
However, he made it clear that his artistic expression is not intended to please everyone or cater to external opinions, especially from those who neither support nor finance his musical journey.
“People criticise me, even those paid to criticise me. What you need to know is that I do not sing to make you feel fine or please you because you do not feed me or fund my musical career,” Whitemoney added.
