Qing Madi Says the Nigerian Music Industry Is So Dark and Not What People Think
Afrobeats rising star, Chimamanda Pearl Chukwuma, better known as Qing Madi, has expressed concern about the state of the Nigerian music scene.
The 18-year-old singer didn’t hold back, describing the industry as “so dark” in a post shared via her Instagram story. Her statement echoes the sentiments of other artists like Reekado Banks, who recently alleged that a powerful figure in the industry is using dark tactics to suppress upcoming talents.
This isn’t the first time Qing Madi has spoken out boldly. Last year, she revealed that she lost a good number of followers after openly sharing her faith and preaching about Jesus online. Despite the backlash, she said she has no regrets.
Similarly, Kizz Daniel had once described the industry as a cartel controlled by a hidden cabal, suggesting that there’s more going on behind the scenes than most people realize.
As of May 28, 2025, speculation is mounting regarding a potential engagement between pop superstar Taylor Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce. The couple, both 35, have been dating since the summer of 2023 and are reportedly in a strong and committed relationship.
According to insider sources, an engagement is “100 percent” expected to happen, with Kelce likely to propose after retiring from the NFL. His current contract with the Kansas City Chiefs ends after the 2025 season, suggesting a proposal could occur in early 2026. Both Swift and Kelce view their relationship as their final one, with plans to marry and start a family eventually.
The couple’s families are reportedly supportive of their relationship. Swift’s parents, Scott and Andrea, are enthusiastic about the union, and Kelce has been seen spending time with them. Similarly, Swift has been embraced by Kelce’s family, having spent Mother’s Day with them in Philadelphia.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting an official announcement, especially after the couple’s unexpected absence from the 2025 American Music Awards. Their no-show sparked theories that they might have skipped the event for a secret engagement ceremony.
Despite the rumors, both Swift and Kelce have found the speculation amusing. They reportedly find it humorous that engagement rumors have been circulating since they began dating.
Popular Nigerian writer Solomon Buchi addresses the topic of luxurious materialism. This topic came up after Popular Comedian, Mr Macaroni shared pictures of the his perfumes.

“You’re not broke — you just don’t need what you want to buy. Consumerism is becoming the god of our time, and it’s killing us slowly. You don’t need it. You’re doing well.”
Music Manager Ubi Franklin reacts to criticism over his recent visit to President Bola Tinubu with Davido and Cubana Chief Priest.
Franklin then reacts to fans and states that he would make the decision to meet the president if given the chance again.
“If anyone of you here get the opportunity to meet even your local Government chairman, I am sure you will be open to it, let alone A president, If I get another opportunity to meet Mr President I’ll do it again And again.”
“If una like make una continue to Dey abuse me, I have been abused, misunderstood and lied against for too long and I no still send una.”
