Nigerian rapper, Folarin Falana popularly known as FalzTheBahdGuy has faulted musicians that encourage crime and fraudulent practices.
Falz, who is the son of human rights attorney, Femi Falana noted that as role models, musicians should use their music as a tool to affect lives positively.
The ‘Soft work’ crooner made this comment during an interview with entertainment channel, Hip Tv.
In his words, “You are an entertainer in a position as a role model to younger ones coming up and in your musical record you are greeting all the yahoo boys, you are greeting all the fraudsters , calling their name personally, hailing them, wire wire mo fe cha che, all this culture you are making the young ones think it’s cool to do it, it’s not, you are destroying our future,” the rapper said.
” As an entertainer sing about something that can help our life, paint a picture, tell a story, don’t glorify fraudulent behaviour it’s not good.”
Though Falz did not mention any musician’s name during the interview, his comments however might be pointing towards 9ice judging by the content of the singer’s lyrics in the song ‘Living things’.
