Nigerian singer, Timaya has reflected on his experiences working with various Nigerian artists.

In a recent interview with Channels TV, Timaya highlighted two collaborations that stood out to him: his work with BNXN and the late Kefee.

Timaya praised Kefee, a renowned singer from the 2000s, for her natural talent and angelic voice.

He recalled their collaboration on the hit song “Kokoroko” from her album “A Piece of Me”.

According to Timaya, he was impressed by Kefee’s skill and the unforgettable experience of working with her.

Timaya equally expressed his admiration for BNXN, acknowledging the impact of their collaboration.

During the interview, Timaya also expressed worry about the increasing difficulties faced by Nigerians in their daily lives.

He highlighted the severity of economic hardship in Nigeria, acknowledging that it is a global issue but more pronounced in the country.

Timaya empathized with those struggling, stating that he also feels the effects of the economic downturn.

He mentioned the significant increase in expenses, including staff salaries and family upkeep, due to the high cost of living.

The singer emphasized that meeting the current economic demands is challenging, even for those earning a decent income.

He noted that the situation is difficult globally, but Nigeria’s circumstances are particularly tough.

He said:

“Things are really hard. I feel it for people because if people are not happy, I can’t be happy, too. I pay bills. I help a lot of people. So I understand what people are going through. I’m also feeling it [the hardship]

“My staff’s salaries and upkeep for family members have drastically increased because of the high cost of living.

“You don’t expect things to be normal. Even politicians are crying, too, not to talk of me. The only way you can meet up with the current economic demands is if you’re earning in dollars. If you’re earning forex and you convert it to naira, that’s how you can ball.

“Even in America right now, things are still hard there because they’re earning in dollars and spending in dollars. It’s hard everywhere. The world is hard right now, but Nigeria is harder.”
