Losing Next Rated To Mr Eazi Was A Motivation - Ycee

Tinny Entertainment artiste, Ycee, has revealed hos losing Headies Next Rated award made him focus more on being successful in his career.

Recall the JUICE crooner lost to Mr Eazi, speaking with Sunday Scoop, Ycee, made it known that making music for his fans is all that matters.

“I am here to do music and that’s my primary calling. Awards and other recognition are just like icing on the cake. Inasmuch as my fans love what I’m doing and I’m able to keep them satisfied, then I’m good. However, not getting the award is a form of motivation for me. It is not like I am not good enough but I always strive to get better, and I will continue doing that. Don’t also forget that I won the Rookie of the Year award at the same Headies two years ago, so I guess one cannot win it all. I can assure my fans that the best is yet to come from me. I have a lot of great things in stock and they would be unveiled at the right time.”

On his style of music:

 “I’m a rapper and I always strive to make songs that people can relate with.”

On the notion that his songs are not ‘local’ enough for the Nigerian audience:

 “I don’t agree with that. After all, I am a Nigerian boy. My songs are influenced by the environment and I always get positive reactions from fans whenever I perform, both in Nigeria and outside the country.”
