HOW TALENTED PEOPLE FEEL WHEN NOT KNOWN IN MUSIC WORLD INTERVIEW
Unnoticed artiste interviewed locally at the backyard of great stars building 2018. I have brought out precious time to intervene on the private success of this unnoticed artiste named Eweke Christian Nkemakolam (stage named - Kotex, Street Lover boy and Nwa Abia) from Nigeria down east side near Abia State Uturu.
When I was interviewing him, he tried his best not to deny his personality rather he shows how trustworthy he has in himself and trust in God Almighty.
Here is the interview in details:
Chinedu
Why do you go into music the first time? Is it for the money, the fame, popularity, help the poor or just that you think you have a message to pass across the world?
Christian
Music is in our linage from my forefathers. It has been long in our blood. Then, I have a message to pass across to the world.
Chinedu
What type of message?
Christian
To inspire the poor who thought there's no other hope. There's hope for everybody because God bless everyone. My songs are inspiration by nature and I love it.
Chinedu
What do you do if others try to follow your songs pattern?
Christian
I change it. But I will not change my intro and what I use as my logo like; I normally use - sail on and the street lover boy. It because anywhere either featuring others, if you hear it you will recognize the voice. That a secret some of the upcoming artiste don't know.
Chinedu
What are the problems you encounter and why didn't you quit?
Christian
Lots of problems. I don't know which one to talk about. Is it money to produce, family setbacks, lost of love ones and others. It's many. I remain in music because am ready to work with God who encourages me spiritually.
Chinedu
How did you believe in God?
Christian
Ha! My brother, if no be Good I don't know where I for dey. Because I don't even understand what is going on in my life in the time of troubles but God who knows everything saved me and shows me the way of his enternal blessings. I don't bear grudges in mind and not been envious in other people's success because I knew it is their blessings as I have mine too.
Chinedu
But, who has really helped you out in your songs so far?
Christian
If I am to say, it is my producers. Because many atimes they are the ones who gave me much inspirations to voice and revoice without giving up on me till I make a meaningful song(s) that only bears my name. Producers are the main source of my power because without them directing me - I don't know where I for dey.
Chinedu
What could be your advice to other upcoming artistes?
Christian
They should remove enviness and jealousy and do their own thing their way.
Chinedu
Can you teach someone how to sing even if when singing is not his talent?
Christian
I can teach anybody and he becomes successful. One thing you should know is, not everybody that sings is a musician and not everybody that isn't a singer is truly not a singer. Some singers sing while some other talented self made singers don't sing. The reason is that, not everybody is called up to shine. Shining is the work of God. Because of that, even if you are not a singer I can teach you how to sing and you become perfect. But know that most songs learners stop singing after releasing either blown songs or not sellable because they are not called up singers from the beginning of their creation except by persistency of their own hearts.
Chinedu
What could stop one from becoming a singer after learning it?
Christian
Shame and unnecessary styles of stage performances and imitating others. Another one is not been concentrated on a particular type of songs or lack of self trust and or dry pocket.
Chinedu
Wow. But as the thing be now, what is your fear in the music world?
Christian
My fear? Hmmm. Well, atimes its talking about myself in crowd. I prefer singing and jarating on stage than talking only. But am working towards it's eradication.
Chinedu
How is people close to you view your life as a musician especially as a street lover boy singer? Any idea?
Christian
Yes. Always. I have little idea. Not even my close people also publicly. I noticed those who don't value me through their gossips, tricks, blind communications and unmotivated eye looks on me. Though, I don't actually know because many that I don't expect to hurt me - do hurt me while many I thought hate me sometimes show me love. So, it's by His grace I live life.
Chinedu
Well, in everything I believe you are going to help people as so many prophecy has revealed your abundances to be too numerous.
Christian
Yeah man. By God grace. You know, with God all things are possible.
Chinedu
What type of songs or music do you play?
Christian
Na wao. Hmmmmm. I love to call it hip-up-reggae or hipregg but it seems so many people don't understand it. It's a kind of combination of hip up songs and reggae and I believe they are good to those who listen to my songs everyday. That why I never give up in playing it to the world.
Chinedu
Thank you for your time.
Christian
You are welcomed.
