Popular rapper, Reminisce has come out to open up on how he created boundaries in his industry relationships.
He recently had his say during an interview with Naija FM, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, his early experiences taught him a tough lesson about fame and the music industry, and he quickly found out that not everyone around him is a friend.
Reminisce added that aspiring artists should always be aware of their surroundings because not everybody around them wants them to succeed.
His words, “Fame is a drug that gets one high and clouds judgment. One of the things I did in life earlier on was to realise that nobody is my friend.
That’s probably why many people don’t like me, if someone has worked with me and you find out that we had issues, if you find out what happened, it would probably have been because I made my decision and stood by it. I have learned that at the end of the day, na me go suffer the consequences.
You know that when it comes to humans, they turn you into an enemy if they aren’t favoured, especially monetarily. It took a while before I became famous and I even had a child beforehand, so the first thing I got to understand is that nobody is your friend, you can be kind and you can assist but the first mistake you can make in this music industry is thinking everyone is your friend. Nobody is your friend.
Reminisce advises aspiring artists to be aware of their surroundings, We all want the same thing so there is no way you’d think everyone is your friend. It is very normal to have people around you when you’re hot and popping and it is your responsibility as a famous person to determine what you want. Not everyone around you wants you to succeed.”
