When I started rapping, everyone thought I would end up like my uncle – BlaqBonez

Nigerian rapper BlaqBonez has opened up on how his talent was constantly doubted by his family members because of his uncle.

The music star took to Twitter on Wednesday, February 16, 2022, where he reminisced on his Uncle’s failed music career and how it affected him as an artist.

“had an uncle that used to rap, didn’t happen for him, he then got hooked on drugs, from rehab to rehab till he ended up in the village. When I started rapping everyone thought I would end up like that but boy did it turn out soooo different,” he wrote.

“they used to say “i see the spirit of uncle *** inside him” and it used to hurt me soooooo bad, it then built a serious fear and anxiety in me, in everything i did, cos I constantly thought “what if they’re true?”

BlaqBonez recently headlined a debut concert in Lagos which was completely sold out. He had a host of other music stars such as M.I, Buju, Ckay, Bella Shmurda come to sensitize the crowd.

The music star has also announced a new single titled, “Commander” to be released on Friday, the 18th of February.
