As a musician and an artiste,
what do you think artistes
from Africa should pay
attention to today?
We should be true to our own
sound. We should be unique.
You can mimic but not copy
entirely. I don't think there is
an end to creativity. I think it's
like an endless pit. We should
always be quick to say we are
Africans no matter how you
sound, be quick to say you are
African and you are from this
part. There is nothing wrong
with being black, there is
nothing wrong in being
African. Follow the sound,
African music has so much
soul, it has so much truth. I
think because we have been
through a lot, we are very
close to our soul. Most of our
sounds from ancient times are
truth.
