Nigerian singer and producer Philip Kayode, known as Pheelz, has shared his perspective on music, challenging the notion that it is a get-rich-quick scheme.
He emphasized that music serves deeper spiritual purposes and is vital for healing.
On his X account, Pheelz stated, “Music is not a grind. It is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It is not a hustle. Music is life. Music is feeling. Music is healing. Music is God.”
In a follow-up post, he differentiated between music and the music business, arguing that the latter is an attempt to commodify something sacred.
He wrote, “The music and the music business are two different frequencies to me. The Music Business is man’s attempt to commodify God’s energy. The Music itself is God.”
This viewpoint resonates with many aspiring and established Afrobeats artists who appreciate the profound impact of music.
