“It Hurts When A ‘Fan’ Insults You Or Abuses You” Iyanya

Iyanya expressed sadness over the way the fans complain about artistes, not going outside the box to learn new things and improve, adding that he will never be under pressure to satisfy anybody.

Speaking on his viral pictures from his yet to be released video, ‘Mr. Oreo’ which fans have tongue lashed, Inyanya said he cannot pay attention to what people say because he is out there to make good music.

“I feel like I owe my fans good music, which I try to do. The fact that those pictures are like that, doesn’t make what it seems. It’s music, its entertainment, its showbiz. If you don’t like it, another person will like it. Take the one you like, leave the others. Don’t condemn the artiste, don’t say bad things about the artiste.


“At the end of the day, we do all these things for the fans. It hurts when a ‘fan’ insults you or abuses you, when you are trying to please that fan. There are better ways to get this done. There are people that advise me constructively and I take it. People walk up to me and say ‘hey, I think you should do this, it will help you’ and I’ll be like ‘hey, thanks’,” he laments.

The artiste, who recently toured the United States of America, says that he also had to shoot some videos of his songs, while networking with foreign artistes.
