But Donli's mark goes beyond highlighting the talent of Victony and speaking on creative touring models. In another tweet, she offered a more personal reflection, stating: "Constantly asking myself what parts of myself I have to compromise for success is exhausting." This introspective thought echoed with many followers, stirring discussions about authenticity and the pressures faced by artists in a demanding industry.
As a founding member of The Lagos Panic, a musical band, as well as one of the few independent artists, Lady Donli's recognition of the new trends stems from an increase in the number of Independent artists in the Afrobeats space. It also stems from the increase in recognition of indie artists like Lady Donli, Show Them Camp, and Obongjayar.
