Nigerian musicians, Banky W and Omawumi, and media personality, Olisa Adibua, have shared their thoughts on whether talent was enough to survive in the country’s entertainment industry.
The trio discussed this during the judges’ chat session in the MTN Y’ello Star music-reality show latest episode.
Banky W, an ace musician and record-label owner, told the contestants that it takes more than having a musical talent to succeed in the entertainment space.
“If you are talented, entitled, and not willing to push yourself to get the other things you need to complete that picture, you will not make it,” he said.
He advised the contestants to display the perfect blend of charisma and finesse that is required to thrive within the Nigerian entertainment space.
Popular songstress, Omawumi, and one of Nigeria’s finest radio presenters, Olisa Adibua, also shared the same sentiment.
They encouraged the finalists to constantly strive for improvement in order to be a force in the industry.
MTN Y’ello Star music reality project is a platform that empowers the musical skills of Nigerian youths while providing them with excellent training aimed at improving their entrepreneurial skills.
