When I started rapping, everybody thought I would get hooked on drugs – Rapper BlaqBonez reveals
Popular Nigerian rapper, Emeka Akumefule also known as Blaqbonez has revealed the back criticizing he had to endure doing the start of his career.
The artiste stated that he had to overcome fear and anxiety as people kept on comparing him to his Uncle who got a failed career.
Blaqbonez narrated how an uncle of his tried rapping at some point but because he had no success in it, got hooked to drugs and later on ended up in the village.
According to him, when he started his rapping career, people acclaimed that he sure would end up like his uncle but much to their disappointment, he’s proved them wrong.
The rapper wrote ;
I had an uncle that used to rap, didn’t happen for him, he then got hooked on drugs, from rehab to rehab till he ended up in the village, when I started rapping everyone thought I would end up like that but boy did it turn out soooo different
I stay proving em wrong
They used to say “i see the spirit of uncle *** inside him” and it used to hurt me soooooo bad, it then built a serious fear and anxiety in me, in everything i did, cos I constantly thought “what if they’re true?”
