Reasons Why Fame is crazy Blaqbonez Reveals, If I know before I won’t bother. Renowned Nigerian rapper Emeka Akumefule, widely known as Blaqbonez, delves into the intricacies of fame, characterizing it as a burdensome and unconventional form of punishment.
Speaking candidly on the Afrobeats Intelligence Podcast hosted by Joey Akan, the BBL crooner contrasts the experiences of those deemed “normal” and wealthier than celebrities, asserting that they are spared the intense stress associated with notoriety. With a tinge of frustration, the ‘Like Ice Spice’ artist laments how his fame in Nigeria impedes his ability to authentically relish life, painting a vivid picture of the challenges that come with being in the public eye.
His words below 👇
“I think fame is a punishment. Normal people can have all the money in the world, and drive a way bigger car than I would drive. But in traffic, everybody will leave them and focus on me. Why?
“Now, if I walk into a restaurant, everybody is on me. I can’t even do those basic things. Normal people can have 50 times my money, wear a regular T-shirt and just stroll. Nobody is checking what type of ring, or chain he is wearing or how fresh he is looking. No human being cares. They just go straight to the world to buy whatever they want. Enjoying whatever experiences.
“I can’t even go out in Nigeria to have actual fun. I must be Blaqbonez. It feels like a crazy punishment. Other people who have way more money have a much easier life than me. I have to be hiding.”
