Young Jonn Discusses Challenges of Becoming a Performing Artist
Nigerian singer Young Jonn revealed that the most challenging aspect of transitioning from a producer to a performing artist was convincing himself he could succeed. In a recent interview with Isi Ijewere on her Backstage Banter trivia YouTube segment, he reflected on his journey after a performance in Canada.
When asked about the hardest part of the transition, Young Jonn admitted, “The hardest part was self-conviction, actually convincing myself that I could do it. That was the hardest part, where I was on stage asking myself if I really wanted to do this or not. It was really hard for me to convince myself that I got this.”
During the interview, Young Jonn also shared that the last time he cried was when he lost his mother and acknowledged that everyone lies to themselves at times to feel better. He expressed his dislike for people who aren’t true to themselves, stating, “When you are true to yourself, that’s when you can be true to anybody else, but if you’re not true to yourself, you’re living a lie.”
Nigerian actor and comedian Bovi Ugboma speaks and reacts after discussing the topic of parents not encouraging dating yet expecting marriage.
He shared this in a recent interview about relationships.
“Most parents, you no wan hear your pikin get boyfriend but when they reach a certain age, you’ll be asking them bring husband. Why have you not brought husband? Where dey wan see husband from?”
Many agreed with his take as they reacted to it. He added “We criminalize the dating culture in Nigeria and now we’re wondering why marriages are breaking,” he stated.
Nigerian actor Kunle Remi laments and shares sadness over the current state of the country regarding security.
He shared that Nigerians are not reacting enough to these news stories and that the human suffering is becoming too much.
He took to social media and called on people to think about what is really going on in the country and how election promotions are still going on despite the insecurity that no one is doing anything about.
“As I settle in for the night, I can’t help but think… As you go to bed tonight, remember there are children sleeping in forests… imagine the cold, the bugs, the fear, the discomfort. Remember there is a mother holding her baby, helpless. Parents praying for safety. Schools living in fear.”
“And somehow, in the middle of all this… election campaigns and preparations still continue. Bloggers are posting elections like everything is normal.”
Nigerian reality star Kiddwaya claims that his father had a role in the democracy of Nigeria.
He shared “When Sani Abacha died, my dad’s close friend was the second in command, so his friend became president. So he came to the house, I wasn’t born then, he came to the house and said look, Terry, I’m president now, I don’t really know what to do, what should we do.”
“And he said, give it to democracy. Like, make it a democracy so the people can vote. When he told me that, I was like, dad you should tell people this. He is one of the reasons Nigeria has a democracy…”
