Music Calling Me A Rapper From The East Puts Me In A Box-Phyno Published 5 years ago on September 9, 2019 By The Octopus News Admin Phyno apparently does not like being tagged a rapper from the East. The rapper who is often reffered to as King of the East revealed this in a recent interview. He revealed he prefered to be referred to as a rapper rather than being called a rapper from the East. Clarifying that he does love where he is from, he said being described that way has a way of boxing such that it make him appear like an artiste that create music for just Eastern Nigerian rather than for the world like he actually does. He said; “I think it’s a box. That’s where I’m from I should be proud of where I’m from but then again just making it feel like my music is just meant for people in that region, it’s a box already. “Anything you put your energy in drains you and that shouldn’t be my problem but then again, it is a box. It’s not something I should be feeling good about. I’m a musician, I’m a rapper, I should do what I want to do and how I know how to do it best but if you want to start judging from how people see it and put it in their head, then you’ll say ‘Okay, this is already a box’ and it’s going to be difficult to get out of this box so just do your thing. … the thing is, in a country like Nigerian where people speak like probably three hundred and sixty-something languages, they tend to take the ones that do the music in their own native language. … Nobody comes out and says Tekno the boy from the east, but he’s from the East or Patoranking the boy from the east, so probably because I do music in Igbo you understand, but that’s how I know how to do it. But then again, Wiz does music in Yoruba whether we like it or not, Davido does music with Yoruba whether we like it or not so why box only Olamide? … This is how I know how to do my music the best way I can do it and I do it with my dialect and that’s it” Phyno is currently promoting his recently released album titled ”Deal With It”.
