My Parents Didn’t Support My Music Career – Phyno

Popular rapper, Phyno has come out to commend the current era of parents for being more encouraging of their children’s talents, unlike the previous generation.

He recently had his say while speaking during his interview on the In My Opinion Podcast, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, his own parents didn’t support his music career when he first started, and while he does not blame them till now, he never liked the fact that they concluded everyone who does music is irresponsible.

Phyno added that there is something special about a child who loves music, so they should always be encouraged.

His words, “My parents didn’t support my career when I first started. It’s different now.

I think the generation after my parents understands what it means to support their children’s talent and knows that there is something special about a child who loves music, or a child who loves to play ball.

Then, when parents come home and see you playing ball, they beat you and seize the ball and give you punishment. You understand me?

I’m just trying to say that era and this era are different. Now any father who sees his son can play ball and enrols him in an academy. Some, at 1 year old already buy you a ball and say you must play ball like Neymar.

Different generations, you know and I also don’t blame my parents. I’m sure that the money in music now was never in music then. They also look at people who did music back then as useless people. As people who just wanted to carry dreadlocks and walk around. But now everyone sees the talent and a gift to be shared to the world, and shout-out to this era of parents.”

WOW.
