Music has not started paying me – White Money
Big Brother Naija Season 6 winner White Money shared insights into his music career during an interview with BBC Igbo. He revealed that his major source of income from music comes from live shows rather than streaming platforms.
White Money mentioned that, at present, music has not been a significant revenue stream for him, but he emphasized that his primary focus is on conveying a strong message through his music.
Despite not considering himself to have a strong vocal ability, he mentioned that he sings for himself and not to please critics or others.
This revelation provides a glimpse into White Money’s approach to his music career, prioritizing the message and live performances over commercial success through streaming platforms.
He said, “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.
“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.”
