Na wah o! Our very own lyrical genius, Erigga, has given us the 411 that he can’t dip from the music scene anytime soon. Even if the naira rains don’t come pouring in, he’s not about to let his mics get cold. No, this isn’t about the benjamins for him; it’s all about pure passion, my people! The rapper who has blessed us with hits on hits dropped this bombshell in an interview with Hip TV, and trust us, we are all ears!
When we say Erigga is about the art, we mean he’s the real deal. There’s no acting for this Warri-based storyteller who spins his life experiences into rhymes that hit harder than a bolt from the blue. And while others might be in it to floss in the Bentley and splash the cash, Erigga’s choice to stick it out in the industry, regardless of the profit dance, is music to our ears!
Now, before you start checking his bank account, hold up! This isn’t a diss to those who measure success by their bank balance; it’s just that for Erigga, the love of the craft overshadows the bling. In his own words, every year, there’s a fresh batch of artists, all shiny and new, ready to dethrone the old guards. But for him, as long as there’s air in his lungs, music shall flow like the River Niger.
Who can relate? Many of us dream of that paper chase, but it’s refreshing to see someone stay true to their art, despite the constant hustle. Erigga is showing us that while money is sweet, passion is sweeter. It’s like a pot of jollof rice; no matter how much you eat, you always want more when it’s got the right spice!
And let’s be real, his music has served as therapy for many out there. From stories of survival to motivational bangers that uplift when Nigeria ‘wahala’ seems never-ending, Erigga has been there, spitting truth and light. So, if you’ve ever vibed to “Motivation” or felt the beat of “Glory,” you know it’s more than just the rhythm; it’s a movement, fam!
While others might decide to pack up their mics and move on to other ventures, Erigga’s here to stay. And for his fans? It’s a big relief. The streets have spoken, and they want more of that Erigga vibe seeping through their speakers.
So, what’s next on his agenda? Does he have some secret sauce simmering in the studio? Well, only time will tell, but one thing is for sure – he’s not slowing down. As long as there’s a beat rocking, Erigga is ready to drop fire bars, and we’re absolutely here for it!
In the end, while some chase the money, others chase the dream. Erigga, with his heart set on his music, is a reminder that sometimes, passion is the biggest paycheck. Keep serenading us, King PaperBoi!
