WHITE MONEY IS NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY AS AN ARTIST BECAUSE NIGERIAN LOVE HIS NATURAL PERSONALITY NOT AND DON’T CONSIDER HIM A CORE MUSICIAN
By David Okunola
Hazel Oyeze Onou, popularly known as White-money will do better in his pursuit to be recognized as a musician which is one of his lifelong dreams if Nigerians start to understand his style and musical artistry.
The reality TV star who won Big Brother Naija season 6. has also shown his talent and skill as a singer, and songwriter, and deserved to be encouraged seeing the enthusiastic energy he is pouring into the act.
Chronicling his journey, the TV reality star said he was brought up in the North and was already making money then as a barber before venturing into other things to make ends meet.
According to white money, it was when he arrived in Lagos that someone whom he had helped produce an album contacted him to also help with the video shoot, and the rest they say is history.
Before Whitemoney became a household name (get the pun) at last year’s Big Brother Naija (Shine Ya Eyes), this multi-talented personality had recorded 10 Music chart-topping songs including:
1- Rosemary- 2 Your life
3 – My heart- 4 Enter
5 – Iyawo mi (ft Gvee and Peejayklasik)
6 – Regeku – 7 No time
8 – Gimme love – 9 Feeling me
10 – Fair love
The songs were quite expressive, each represented some part of his journey through life; it seemed like he poured his heart and soul into them.
In the BBNaija house, when he wasn’t cooking, Whitemoney would entertain his fellow housemates with his singing or simply trying to write a song.
Little wonder after his landslide victory of that installment of the show, he immediately released a song “Selense ” followed by a video.
Even though not everyone Precaites his Music, in all honesty, it was a hit hence encouraging the artist is significant to his career.
During a recent interview, White Money revealed Selense was written 9 years ago, but then there was no intention to record it. I guess it was just perfect timing.
White Money is also very heavy in Nollywood as since leaving Big Brother House he has been seen on different filming locations among other star Actors in Nollywood sets.
Well, in my own opinion, I think White Money has passion for music and he will do very well in the music industry if he is supported.
If after winning BBNaija, he is still very passionat about pursuing Music, then let him be encouraged to pursue this career.
