Songstress Candy Bleakz has voiced her frustration over the lack of support for emerging female Nigerian artists from their more established counterparts. According to her, no female Nigerian artist can genuinely claim to have helped another female artist rise in the industry.
Featured on the latest episode of ‘The Honest Bunch’ podcast, co-hosted by actor Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, also known as Nedu, Candy Bleakz stated:
“There’s no female artiste in Nigeria right now that you can say has helped bring out another female artiste.”
During the podcast, she also opened up about her tomboyish nature, sharing that despite her mother’s efforts to change her, she has always remained true to herself:
“I’m a tomboy naturally. I’m not doing it for music promotion. My mum had tried to change me but she couldn’t,” Bleakz said.
