“They advised me to join secret cult in order to ‘blow’” – Phyno

The legendary rapper, Phyno opens up on how some people used to advise him when he was starting out in the music industry that joining a cult or performing rituals would make him famous and successful.

While giving advice to the rising young singers, he told them about his past and reminded them of what was wrong with taking shortcuts when it came to success.

He had definitively refused the offer, choosing to forge his own path through hard work, determination and perseverance, Connect” crooner told us.

Emphasised that he had no desire to make small cuts, in order to achieve success. He also made it more difficult for artists to sign contracts with record companies, at a time of desperation.

He said:

“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.

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”.
