Lil Durk Warns Artists: ‘The Industry Is Fake, Focus on Money, Not Friends’
American rapper Lil Durk has issued a cautionary message to his fellow artists, advising them against forming friendships with other musicians in the industry.
He expressed his belief that the music industry is largely “fake” and encouraged artists to prioritize their financial success over building relationships with colleagues.
The rapper, known for his hit song “All My Life,” took to his X (formerly Twitter) handle to share his perspective, urging musicians to focus on their craft and earnings rather than seeking friendships within the industry.
Lil Durk’s message read: “The industry is fake, stop trying to be friends and just focus on making money. Stick with those you trust and are already loyal to… Free the world.”
His statement highlights the cutthroat nature of the music business and serves as advice to avoid the potential pitfalls of superficial relationships.
Through this message, Lil Durk joins other artists who have spoken out about the challenges and pressures of navigating the music industry, particularly regarding trust and authenticity among peers.
Nigerian actress Omowunmi Dada speaks on her relationship and shares that she ended her relationship due to their different beliefs. Her partner was Islamic, and she is Christian.
“I dated someone who, when I met him, was a Christian, and then sometime later Ramadan started and he said he was fasting. I said why, and he said because that is what would make his mom happy. Being a Muslim is what would make his mom happy. There and then, I knew I couldn’t be with him.
“I have nothing against Muslims; I have Muslim friends who are amazing people, by the way. But for the kind of family that I want to raise, I would love to raise my children the Christian way. I want to be able to hold hands with my husband in one faith, in unity as a family.”
Nigerian actor Olaide Olabanji speaks on Peter Obi’s election campaign and shows support for him.
The actor shared “If someone can destroy a country in three years, with ease, another person can make it better. Where bad people are, that’s where the progressive people are also at.
“Gowon ruled Nigeria for nine years, Gen. Murtala Muhammed repaired it in just six months.
“So if your tribe person can’t give you a better life, why not allow Peter Obi to give you a better future?”
VeryDarkMan, a social media activist, speaks on how Nigerians are starting to reflect Nigeria as a government.
Stating that Nigerians are now just as bad as the actions of the government, he shared “Yes, I have the movement to challenge the government 100%. The problem is the average Nigerian is just as bad as their leaders, and they will betray you either for money, tribalism, or religion.”
“Nigerians, a lot of them are wicked. Only vendor you go buy something, vendor no go deliver.”
“Do you know how many scam cases I have in my office? Just few days ago, N70M was recovered. I no even come online come talk….”
