Pheelz: “Music is Divine, Not a Get-Rich-Quick Scheme”
Nigerian artist and producer Philip Kayode, popularly known as Pheelz, has expressed his belief that music should not be viewed as a get-rich-quick scheme, a perception held by some people.
He emphasized that music holds a deeper, more spiritual significance beyond financial gain.
According to Pheelz, music is a divine force that brings healing and serves as a connection to higher powers.
He further explained this idea on his X (formerly Twitter) account, where he shared his thoughts on the essence of music.
In his words, “Music is not a grind. It is not a hustle or a shortcut to wealth. Music is life, it is feeling, healing, and ultimately, music is God.”
In a separate post, Pheelz also shared his view on the music industry, distinguishing the art of music and the business side of it.
He suggested that while music itself is divine, the music business is humanity’s way of trying to commercialize something that stems from a higher power.
He described the music business as “man’s attempt to commodify God’s energy” while maintaining that the essence of music itself remains sacred.
This perspective is noteworthy in the context of Afrobeats, where many up-and-coming and established artists have often cited poverty and financial struggles as key motivations for their careers.
Pheelz’s message seems to offer a different approach, urging both artists and listeners to recognize music as a spiritual journey rather than just a means to financial success.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
