Nigerian artist, Lami Phillips-Gbadamosi is lamenting losing a lot of her followers due to her absence in the music scene.
The singer, songwriter and actress who has an album in her name and at least three hit tracks, said she left music due some challenges she encountered.
She wrote: “In the absence of putting out new music, I’ve lost a lot of followers. I get it. The girl who they once clicked “follow” for, is all of a sudden talking about motherhood and spirituality, and for some, that’s not what they signed up for. Like I said, I get it.
“What most people don’t know, is that my journey to get here came from the unexpected restrictions and challenges I faced in music. Let’s be clear…. I NEVER STOPPED DOING MUSIC… but when I faced certain things that tried to stop me, I found a new voice.
“In light of those losses, I’ve actually gained new followers with more engagement and deeper connections. Now, I get to use my voice and platform in more encompassing ways, with a wider more meaningful reach. I am allowing myself to be all that I am, rather than only one aspect of who I’ve been.
