The ‘Erima‘ crooner, addressed issues like song theft from top artistes in the industry, favoritism by DJ’s, radio station and his new album.
According to Blackface:
I came into this game when the industry had no
face, with respect to all other musicians and melody makers I listened
to before I started creating mine, I brought in the faces (you know
there names already ) that was going to create a spark in the Nigerian
music scene to make other youths know that you can be whatever you set
your heart out to be with determination and hard work as nothing in life
is a handout.
The plantashun boiz was a dream that didn’t
actually come to be as the dream was cut short as we never went
international even though our music did and our style was embraced by so
many music lovers, but you all know the story.
Maybe, maybe someday me and my former members
might do a song or a project but that remains for the gods to decide as
it is as friends have become foes in these times.
My journey has been the rough one and
am glad for all the tragedies I passed through over the past years
because that made me stronger and value life more than I did initially
when I had all the spotlight on me and my crew Trybunalzworking and
making music day in day out for the fans.
We were in almost every club, stage, and anywhere
there was a live microphone and a DJ to give us beats and we thrilled
fans as that’s what we did for a living, entertain, until sabotage
started by greedy ones who will pay radio DJs not to play our music
because we were a threat to their music as even their fans were jumping
to ‘AheadOfTheGame’ and they didn’t like that.
Some so called pioneers in the radio and TV won’t
play our music either because they were part of a so called #Cabal but
that hadn’t changed anything as this Rasta only became stronger while
those they support and adhere to their demands start to run out of ideas
and resort to stealing our old materials from released albums and yet
to be recorded songs to make their own music so all along I been
competing with myself and the #saboteurs.
The Album “Defender” is just around the corner
and dem don sing am before say Somethingwanttohappen and
thealbumDefender is it’.
The Defender ” will be sequel to Ghetto Child (2007),Evergreen (2007), Jungle Fever, Me, Musiq and I (2008),Dancehall Business (2010).
Blackface some months back, accused star boy, Blackface, Wizkid, of stealing a song from him.
