• Emerging artist @ustinangelo exposes dark secrets of Nigerian music industry.
• Allegations of industry pressures and sinister practices surface after Mohbad’s tragic passing.
• @ustinangelo claims coercion to smoke, frequent nightclubs, join brotherhood, and engage with religious figures.
• Unveiled demands also include loyalty to unidentified individuals and public feuds with popular artists.

Following the untimely demise of Nigerian singer Mohbad, shocking allegations of hidden dark secrets within the country’s music industry have come to light.

These unsettling revelations were brought to the forefront by aspiring musician @ustinangelo, who, in a viral tweet, cast a stark spotlight on what he claims to be the industry’s deeply concealed secrets.

@ustinangelo, whose real identity remains undisclosed, took to social media to shed light on the unsettling challenges faced by emerging artists.

In his Twitter post, he detailed a series of disturbing conditions that he alleges were imposed upon him back in 2015.

In his words;

“The music Industry is dark. Back in 2015 at mafoloku in Oshodi, after recording my first song, a group of guys took me to some Ogas (won’t mention names). They gave me the following conditions;

1. Start Smoking.
2. Must be at Night Clubs 24/7.
3. Join the Brotherhood and Serve for 6 Months.
4. Find an Alfa or Cele Pastor to Work For.
5. Be Loyal to a Mysterious Figure.
6. Diss a Popular Artist Regularly.

@ustinangelo concluded his tweet by revealing his steadfast refusal to comply with these unsettling demands, opting instead to pursue his career independently.

Regrettably, his efforts yielded negligible results, leading to his decision to exit the industry out of sheer frustration.

Netizens Reactions…

@Thattruthtella said: Must we sing circular songs? Tbt the music industry is dark & that means you’d have to be very familiar with the system (house) to be able to move in the dark. I ventured into rapping in 2008, lost some1 dear to me immediately I dropped my first single. Story 4 another day.
