Humility doesn’t work, how many humble Artistes made it big – MI Abaga spills
Popular Rapper, Jude Abaga, aka MI, has stated that he had experimented with humility for over a decade and has found out that it does not work.
According to the rapper, people should ‘carry their shoulders up’ as there is no point in being humble.
M.I disclosed this on his Twitter handle. He stated;
“Having experimented with humility for over a decade within these shores, I am here to report my findings. It doesn’t work here. Carry your shoulder hop (sic).” Though many felt the statement reeked of pride and arrogance, the rapper stuck to his guns.
Also in an interview with Sunday Scoop, he said, “Don’t be humble. It does not work. How many humble artistes are ‘big’? Who are the big artistes and who are the humble ones? I don’t want to grant an interview now. I just made the post for fun.”
However, the post attracted diverse comments. Ezeqwesiri wrote, “Stay humble. Don’t let motivational talks swindle you. Humility opens doors.”
Another follower, Forlahbee wrote, “I don’t think humility is the word he (MI) wanted to use.”
In agreement with the rapper, a fan, Riccoten, wrote, “I wholeheartedly agree! People will trample on you.”
Another commented, “You can be humble and know how to still carry yourself with pride.”
