Nigerian rapper, Emeka Akumefule, professionally known as Blaqbonez has shared a thought-provoking experience stemming from his performance at a corporate end-of-the-year party on Tuesday, December 20.
In his post on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, December 20, Blaqbonez expressed his newfound realization about the mature nature of the audience, admitting that he became acutely aware of the explicit content embedded in his lyrics.
The rapper conveyed that the encounter left an indelible mark on him, emphasizing the unexpected confrontation with the disparity between his lyrical content and the sophisticated atmosphere of the corporate event.
In his post, Blaqbonez articulated, "Yesterday I performed at a company’s end of the year party, very mature audience, that was when I realized how vulgar my lyrics actually were. Looking mummy & daddy in the eye while saying “can’t let these fucking bitches see no emotion” is something i’d never forget."
