As up-and-coming Nigerian artistes strive to “blow,” popular singer, Omoniyi Temidayo Raphael, popularly known as Zlatan Ibile, has a piece of advice for them.
According to him, while families are raising funds to promote and market these aspiring artistes, they should also set aside money for therapy.
The singer issued the warning on Thursday, August 28th, 2025 via his X handle (formerly Twitter).
He wrote; “If you get brother or sister wey be fast rising artist and you believe say he or she go blow as una dey keep money for marketing and promo make una dey keep therapist money for one side tooo cos lol!!!”
It is interesting to know that many musicians have, at various times, opened up about their struggles with depression.
Notably, in 2022, Nigerian singer, Omah Lay revealed via his X handle that his depression worsened after he had a sexual relationship with his therapist.
