Nigerian singer and rapper, Olatunji Oladotun Alade, aka Dotman has given reasons why he intends to use his music to address abuses, gender sentiments against men.
In a series of tweet on Saturday, he said; “Abuse against men is really something, even though it’s rarely highlighted.
“Like even from society POV[Point of View], men are not even allowed the space to process the pain and stress.
“You go dey hear ‘be a man’. As much as this phrase may sound uplifting and encouraging, it is destructive.
“As a man and artist who has seen these things from verbal abuse to other types, I just feel like I should use my music to highlight it sometimes. E no easy but I’ll start that convo with my next EP,
“The first track is ‘Star Life’ and I use it to speak for men that have been told to ‘be a man’. I’ll try to shatter some biases that never really favored men. Strength to all the men going through it”.
