Nigerian singer Korede Bello has expressed his concerns about the quality of music being produced by young artistes. In a recent interview on Hip TV’s Trending, Bello stated that young artistes lack the experience to create quality music, leading to a decline in the overall quality of music.
According to Bello, “When you start to have young artists blowing up, the quality of the music starts to reduce because they don’t have quality experiences. They don’t know how to live yet.”
He emphasized that experienced artistes like African China, Timaya, and Fela have a deeper understanding of life, which is reflected in their music. Bello urged listeners not to blame young artistes, saying, “You can only give what you have.”
Bello’s comments have sparked a debate about the role of experience in creating quality music. While some agree with his sentiments, others argue that talent and creativity can shine through regardless of age or experience.
